Police said the man's corpse was found at around midday on Easter Monday near the Media City Metrolink tram stop in Salford Quays. Greater Manchester Police found “no evidence to support the theory that a serial killer is at large” after looking again at 85 waterway deaths. Following the 2018 incident, Manchester’s city centre spokesman called the “pusher” theory an urban myth and said most deaths were accidents linked to alcohol consumption. “The police and the council have examined every case in the city centre over the last 10 years and have found no link or connection between the fatalities,” councillor Pat Karney told the Guardian.
