A man has been arrested on suspicion of murder after a motorist was struck by another driver.
Police said both men were involved in an altercation in Oldham, Greater Manchester.
They were called to reports of a fight in Broadway, Chadderton, close to the Elk Mill roundabout, at about 6.40pm on Wednesday.
Officers said it is believed that the drivers fought before one got back into his vehicle and struck the other man.
A 50-year-old man was pronounced dead at the scene – and a 32-year-old suspect later handed himself into police.
He remains in custody for questioning, Greater Manchester Police said.
Detective Chief Inspector David Moores, from the force’s Major Incident Team, said: “While an arrest has now been secured and an investigation is well underway, I would urge anyone with any information regarding last night’s incident to please get in touch with us.
