    A man deliberately drove a truck at a pedestrian in Manchester.

    Police have confirmed the incident was not a terror attack but believe the driver was targeting the pedestrian.

    The incident took place in the city centre last night, 23 July, when a red lorry struck one man on Well Street, next to The Printworks, at around 11.20pm.

    The victim made off from the scene in a BMW before officers arrived.

    He was later found and was not suffering from any serious injuries.

    A local resident said the men had been arguing prior to the incident.
