This man was just going about his daily work when he was gunned down Det Supt Rebekah Sutcliffe | |
Eight men and two women were later arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to murder at various addresses in Greater Manchester. | |
The 11th suspect, a man, was arrested on Monday. | |
Det Supt Rebekah Sutcliffe, of Greater Manchester Police (GMP), said: "Although we have 11 people in custody we would still be interested in speaking to anyone who can tell us more about this brutal attack on an innocent shop worker. | |
"This man was just going about his daily work when he was gunned down. | |
"I'm keen to speak to anyone who may have any information about the people responsible for this attack, particularly anyone who saw the blue Mazda driving away from the shop before it was dumped in Wigan." | |
GMP and the Serious Organised Crime Agency (Soca) have made a joint referral to the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC), the force said. | |
"The referral is to allow independent examination of information sharing between SOCA and GMP prior to the fatal shooting," a GMP spokeswoman said. |
