A man has been arrested after a mother-of-three was fatally wounded by a glass bottle while she was enjoying a drink in a pub in Greater Manchester. | |
Emma O'Kane, 27, was the innocent victim of a row involving a man who had been refused entry, police said. | |
She suffered a severe neck injury in the incident at 0200 GMT at the Queen Anne Hotel on Market Street, Heywood, and died later in hospital. | |
A 19-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder. | |
Police said Ms O' Kane was hit by a shard of glass. | |
She had been out enjoying a few drinks on Friday night with her sister and friends when she was wounded, said Helen Duncan, a neighbour. | |
Ms O'Kane lived with her partner and their three children aged six, three and one in Heywood. | |
Earlier detectives revealed they were looking for a man who had been refused entry to the pub. | |
"He became involved in an altercation with the doormen and threw a bottle into the pub," said Det Supt Peter Jackson. |
