Two suspected pranksters have been arrested after appearing to spray Orthodox Jews with water pistols in a cruel targeted prank.
The men, aged 26 and 36, were taken into custody for questioning on suspicion of racially aggravated common assault on Thursday.
Police officers made the arrests in response to a video, which was widely shared online, of two men driving around Salford and spraying members of the Jewish community with water guns.
In the short social media clip, the pair, who have been branded 'playground bullies', can be heard cruelly laughing as they soak innocent passersby on the street.
In another clip, one of the so-called 'pranksters' held his phone near a Jewish man before playing an Apple Pay sound effect and saying: 'You are very rich, I just got £60 from you.'
