Four teenage girls arrested for a racially aggravated public order offence on a tram, have been bailed until 4 July.

The girls, aged 16-18, were arrested and interviewed following the incident, which took place on a tram between Rochdale and Oldham on Friday.

A couple travelling on the tram with their baby allege they were racially abused by the girls, who got on in Shaw. The man filmed some of the incident and the video has had more than a million hits online.
