Police arrived in Radcliffe Avenue at about 11.20pm last night as part of the murder investigation into the death of 20-year-old Mohammed Feazan Ayaz, whose was found naked and with multiple injuries.
A resident, who did not wish to be named, said: "They came just before midnight last night - armed police, the police helicopter, the lot.

"They have been there all of today too. Scenes of Crime officers arrived at about 1pm today. There's still loads of police activity here and police officers are guarding a house."
Another resident was trying to get to sleep when she heard some noise outside at around 1am.
She said: “ I heard the police helicopter circling outside when I looked out of my window and saw loads of armed police pointing their guns at the house.
“There was a man semi naked in the street and then when I looked a bit later the man was coming out of the house with his hands up. The guy who was semi naked was white but I couldn’t tell if the man with his hands up was too.
“It made me nervous I didn’t get much sleep last night but then today it made me feel safer having the police there. The people who live there keep themselves to themselves I have not really had much to do with them I haven’t noticed any strange comings and going is from the house. I was just gobsmacked seeing all the armed police outside.”
