A woman has been rushed to hospital after being viciously stabbed during a robbery at a Greggs bakery.
The victim was knifed in the leg at the High Street favourite in Droylsden, Manchester, on Thursday.
Detectives swopped on the scene after a suspect stormed the property and attacked just after 5pm.
Greater Manchester Police said the woman was rushed to hospital but her injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.
It has not been confirmed whether she was an employee or a member of the public, The Manchester Evening News reported.
Police were seen scouring the scene soon afterwards for clues as a cordon was erected.
Officers were reportedly guarding the entrance last night.
