A man has been arrested after a copy of the Koran was reportedly burned in Manchester city centre.
The Islamic holy book appeared to be set alight on a livestream on social media on Saturday.
The incident took place at the Glade of Light memorial, which commemorates the victims of the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing.
Now police say that a 47-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of a racially aggravated public order offence.
He remains in custody currently for questioning.

Assistant Chief Constable Stephanie Parker said, “We understand the deep concern this will cause within some of our diverse communities and are aware of a live video circulating.
“We made a swift arrest at the time and recognise the right people have for freedom of expression, but when this crosses into intimidation to cause harm or distress we will always look to take action when it is reported to us.”
