At around 7pm, emergency services responded to reports of a road traffic collision anti-clockwise between junction 15 and 16, involving a heavy goods vehicle.
It is believed that the vehicle, a HGV with a white cab and blue trailer, had been travelling on the M60 when the vehicle lost control and collided into two vehicles. It then crossed into the opposing carriageway and collided with a further two vehicles, before coming to rest on the verge.
Sadly, the driver of one of the vehicles, a man in his 60s, died as a result of injuries from the collision.
A woman in her 20s suffered serious injuries not believed to be life-threatening, while several other people sustained minor injuries.
No arrests have been made.
