Detectives are appealing for information after a male sustained injuries in Macclesfield last week.

Shortly after 4am on Friday 11 June a 41-year-old man was found with injuries at the junction of Buxton Road and York Road near to Victoria Park.

He was taken to hospital. His next of kin have been made aware.

Police are trying to establish how the man became injured and want to speak to anyone who may have information on these mysterious circumstances.

Macclesfield-based Detective Constable George Vlastos said: "We understand that this incident may cause come concern but I would like to reassure people that we are doing everything we can to get to the bottom of what happened.

"The man also had two black bags which are unaccounted for and we're keen to find out what happened to this.

"We are appealing to anyone who was in the Victoria Park area at around 10pm Thursday June 10 and 5am Friday June 11 who may have seen the man or something that did not look quite right.

"The same goes to anyone who may have dashcam footage from driving past the area."

Anyone with information is asked to call Cheshire Police on 101 quoting IML 1012013 or report it here.
