A cordon was also put in place yards away around a pub. Greater Manchester Police (GMP) have now launched a murder investigation. Three people have been arrested in connection with the probe.
A resident of Nevin Road told the Manchester Evening News about the shocking moment the injured boy ran into the doorway of his home apparently fleeing his attackers and said repeatedly "I don't want to die".
"He just came through the door and said 'I've been stabbed '. We sat him down on a chair and phoned an ambulance. He just kept saying 'I don't want to die,'" he said.
The resident said onlookers performed CPR on the boy until police arrived at the scene and sealed off the area. The victim's family is currently being supported by specialist officers.
Forensics in white suits also arrived at the scene, with CSI vans parked up on Nevin Road and outside the pub. An air ambulance was scrambled following the incident, and landed on nearby Nuthurst Park.
A major murder probe has now been launched, with detectives urging witnesses in the area at around 5pm to come forward as they piece together what happened.
Superintendent Marcus Noden said "This is a distressing and heartbreaking incident where a boy has lost his life. We are still trying to establish the circumstances around the incident and have a number of scenes in place.
" Officers are looking for information or eye witness accounts from anyone who was in the Nevin Road area of New Moston at around 5pm today quoting log 2250 of 8/6/25.

Greg Monks' sister urges friends to 'stick together' in party resorts after body found in Portugal
"Before everyone left the hotel that night Greg made sure they all had a business card and a map from the hotel to help them find their way home. That is the kind of person he was." The sister of a Scots tourist who was found dead in Portugal after vanishing during a stag do has urged groups to "stick together" in party resorts. Greg Monks disappeared hours into the first night of a five-day stag trip to Albufeira. The 38-year-old became separated from pals when trying to head back to his hotel after a night on the famous club strip in the Algarve city. Greg, from Cambuslang near Glasgow, was last spotted on CCTV in a quiet residential area of Cerro de Aguia in the early hours of Wednesday, May 28 after arriving on the Tuesday evening. Tragically, after a week long search, Greg's body was found at the bottom of a ravine in the Cerro de Aguia neighbourhood on Wednesday, June 4. Now almost a week on from the devastating discovery, Greg's sister Jillian hopes her brothers story can serve as a warning to other Scots heading to party destinations, like Albufeira. Jillian told the Record: "I think it just shows in places like Albufeira everyone needs to stick together and look after each other. "His pals are absolutely devastated at what happened." Jillian revealed how her kind-hearted brother Greg made efforts to make sure his pals remembered where the hotel was and how to find it, before he tragically disappeared. She added: "Before everyone left the hotel that night Greg made sure they all had a business card and a map from the hotel to help them find their way home. "That is the kind of person he was. He was just looking after everyone else. He was so considerate." Police were able to locate Greg's body after CCTV from a local resident showed him attempting to scale a fence before he sadly fell to his death. He was found with all his belongings on him, including his wallet and phone something that makes his family certain that Greg came to no harm. Jillian said: "We don't believe that anything untoward happened. Everything the police have told us adds up. "We'll never truly know the full story. But we believe he just got lost and ended up at the wrong place at the wrong time. "It brings us some comfort knowing that Greg all had his belongings on him. He wasn't robbed, he still had his phone and his wallet, he had all his cards and cash." Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

The Record yesterday told how Greg's loved ones are hoping to bring him home 'this week' as they plan his repatriation back to the UK. They are then planning a huge send off for him. Greg's mum Lynne, cousin and girlfriend Nicole flew back from Portugal last night without him, with authorities in Portugal working to arrange Greg's return home. Jillian said: 'We're hoping to bring Greg home by the weekend. 'His mum, girlfriend and cousin are going to fly home tonight. They wanted to fly back with him but it has just not been possible. 'It has been the toughest time of our lives. We still can't believe what has happened. 'But we're glad we now have some sense of closure. I don't know if any of us could have coped with even another day searching for my brother. 'We couldn't eat, we couldn't sleep. It was absolute torture. 'To know Greg has been found is a slight relief. We can now bring him home and give him the send off he deserves.'

Metal bat thug branded "Bob Marley" smashed birthday reveller's jaw in brutal attack
Michael Gray went out to seek revenge on the young man who compared him to the reggae legend. A young man out celebrating his 21st birthday was subjected to a horrific attack with a metal bat which smashed his jaw. Dreadlocked thug Michael Gray apparently took offence to being called Bob Marley and went looking for revenge several hours later. He jumped out of a car as Josh Shaw walked home from a bar with his partner and viciously attacked him with the bat, knocking him unconscious. Gray, 40, of Glenrothes, was jailed for two years when he appeared for sentencing at Kirkcaldy Sheriff Court. He previously admitted that on June 22 last year at Caskieberran Road, Glenrothes, he assaulted the man, repeatedly threatened him with violence, challenged him to a fight and repeatedly struck him on the head and body with a baseball bat to his severe injury and permanent impairment. Depute fiscal Sarah Smith previously told the court that the victim was out with friends for his 21st birthday and they were initially in Pinkertons pub in Glenrothes.

Gray was also there with friends and his first interchange with the victim was asking if he had put an Oasis song on the jukebox. As Gray was leaving his premises the victim said, 'See you later Bob Marley'. Gray thought it was a reference to his dreadlocks and was heard saying, 'I'm gonna cave his skull in'. The two groups were later in the Styx bar and Gray angrily warned the victim 'he was not the type of person to have a laugh with and he did not know who he was messing with', added the depute. At around 1.20am Mr Shaw and his partner left the bar and began walking home when a car pulled up next to them with Gray in the front passenger seat. Gray got out of the car holding a black metal bat, which he used to strike the victim repeatedly on the head and body. He was knocked unconscious falling to the ground with passers-by calling an ambulance but a police car arrived on the scene shortly afterwards and took him to the hospital. The victim's partner managed to video part of the incident, which included Gray making death threats and a black Vauxhall Zafira then driving off. This led to Gray being traced and arrested. Mr Shaw required surgery a few days later on his broken jaw. He had a metal plate and screws inserted to hold it together. He has lost feeling in the part of his chin which was struck and has been told this will never return. He also required stitches to a cut lip. Sheriff James Williamson previously told Gray, 'This was an outrageous, unprovoked and pre-planned assault on a young man causing him significant injury.' Gray submitted his guilty plea in February but the sentencing was delayed on various occasions for reports.

Nursery worker admits manslaughter after death of 14-month-old baby
Noah Sibanda died after an incident at Dudley's Fairytales Day Nursery on December 9, 2022. A nursery worker has admitted to manslaughter following the death of a 14-month-old baby. Kimberley Cookson admitted one count of gross negligence manslaughter in connection with the death of Noah Sibanda. The tot died after an incident at Dudley's Fairytales Day Nursery on December 9, 2022, The Mirror reports. Cookson, 22, appeared at Wolverhampton Crown Court, alongside business owner Deborah Latewood, 54, on Tuesday. Latewood pleaded not guilty to failing to comply with a duty under the Health and Safety at Work Act to ensure that Noah and others were not exposed to risk between November 29 and December 9, 2022. A plea of not guilty was also entered on behalf of the firm which ran the now-closed nursery, to one count of corporate manslaughter, including an alleged failure to ensure that children in the baby room were put down to sleep in a safe way, failure to ensure that staff were adequately trained to put babies down to sleep and failure to ensure staff were adequately supervised while doing so. The firm also pleaded not guilty to failing to comply with a duty under the Health and Safety at Work Act to ensure that Noah and others were not exposed to risk between November 29 and December 9 2022. Cookson and Latewood spoke only to confirm their date of birth and to enter their pleas in front of the courtroom, which was packed with members of Noah's family and supporters of the defendants. Judge Michael Chambers KC said Latewood and the company would face a trial, likely to be in 2026, but did not set a date. Cookson will be sentenced upon conclusion of the trial, which is expected to last three weeks and both Cookson and Latewood were released on unconditional bail until the next hearing. Judge Chambers said: 'In your case, Kimberley Cookson, you have had the courage to plead guilty and will get the appropriate credit for that plea. "I am adjourning your sentencing until the conclusion of the trial, so the judge will have all the facts of the case.' He warned both defendants that if they did not appear for their trial, they could face further criminal proceedings. A pre-trial review hearing was set for December 5.
