An inquest into the death of a woman who was hit by a bus near Piccadilly Gardens in Manchester city centre has been opened and adjourned. Joyce Bacon, 60, from Droylsden, Tameside, died when a double-decker collided with three pedestrians at a bus stop stand on July 10.

Mr Golombeck said that at 9.24pm on Sunday, July 10, a 'twin deck bus' was travelling in a south-easterly direction. The driver, he said, brought the bus to a stop between two bus stop stands at Piccadilly Gardens. Another woman, said to be aged in her 50s, suffered serious injuries in the collision, while a man in his 60s received treatment for what police described as 'minor' injuries.
