Callum Riley was found with serious injuries in Heywood, Rochdale, on Saturday morning and died a short time later.
Two men, aged 18 and 33, and a 21-year-old woman have been arrested on suspicion of murder, Greater Manchester Police (GMP) said.
Detective Chief Inspector Gina Brennand said: ‘On behalf of GMP, I send condolences to Callum’s family. A specially trained officer has been deployed to liaise with them and ensure they are fully updated on our investigation.
‘Since this morning, we’ve made progress in establishing the full circumstances surrounding this incident and have made a third arrest.
‘However, our enquiries are very much ongoing and we are continuing to appeal for information.
‘We are continually assessing the impact this incident has had on local communities but I reiterate that we do not believe there is any risk to the public.
