Superintendent Marcus Noden said: “This is a distressing and heart-breaking incident where a boy has lost his life.
“We are still trying to establish the circumstances around the incident and have a number of scenes in place.”
Pictures from the scene show a police cordon on Nevin Road in New Moston as well as another at the nearby Fairway Inn pub.
An air ambulance was also scrambled to the scene, landing in Nuthurst Road Park – just a short distance away from Nevin Road.
Detectives said the boy’s family was currently being supported by specialist officers.
Cops are currently appealing for information and are asking people who were in the Nevin Road area to come forward.
