Emergency services descended on a Heywood street following a two-car crash.
Paramedics treated two people at the scene following the collision on Green Lane at around 9.45am this morning (April 26).
Two fire engines and a specialist rescue team were also sent out to the scene.
Images from the scene showed two cars, a red Ford Mondeo and a blue car, involved in the crash at a junction.
The front end of the blue car appears to be completely wrecked from the crash, while the Mondeo also appears damaged.
A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service said: “At just before 9.45am today (Saturday, April 26), fire crews were called to reports of a road traffic collision on Green Lane in Heywood.
“Two fire engines from Heywood and Rochdale along with the enhanced rescue unit from Ashton-Under-Lyne attended the incident which involved two vehicles.
“The crew arrived quickly and worked to make the vehicles and the area safe.
“Two people were treated at the scene by colleagues from North West Ambulance service.
“Firefighters were in attendance for approximately 50 minutes.”
