United Airlines divert into MAN
Anyone know anything about this, have heard a few stories from Med emergency to fuel leak.
CDG-ORD I believe. 767.
Definitely dumped fuel.

From what I've read on the forums it was a fuel leak. Apparently it's the same aircraft that diverted into SNN a month or so ago with the same issue.

UAL2768 Emergency Diversion
Just seen that UAL2768 (MAN to ORD) was just crossing the north of Ireland and about to coast out towards the Shanwick boundary when it has set 7700 and made a sharp left turn and is descending towards Shannon!
Hope all is well and it is just precautionary.

This is N642UA, which yesterday diverted to MAN with a fuel leak. Seems like continued issues for the same aircraft. It also diverted in November with a fuel leak.
