Five people have been arrested after a man suffered serious injuries in an alleged assault in Hollingworth.
Greater Manchester Police said they were called to Printers Fold at around 9.30pm last Friday evening (13 May).
A 54-year-old man suffered serious injuries and was taken to hospital. Police say his injuries are not believed to be life-threatening.
Five males were arrested in connection with the alleged attack, GMP has said.
An 18-year-old man from Glossop has since been charged with wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and possession of an offensive weapon. He was remanded in custody to appear at Tameside Magistrates' Court.
Three other males, aged 16, 17 and 18, were arrested and have since been released while police continue their enquires. A 16-year-old boy remains in custody for questioning.
