Nineteen people have been killed and about 50 others injured in an attack carried out on Ariana Grande concert yesterday (22nd) night at Manchester Arena in England.
Greater Manchester Police said the incident was being treated as terrorism. Police said the explosion took place outside the arena, which is near the Manchester Victoria transit station, as the concert ended at about 10:35 p.m. local time, catching people as they exited.
Ian Hopkins, chief constable of the Greater Manchester Police, said investigators were coordinating with British intelligence. “This is clearly a very concerning time for everyone,” he said at a brief news conference early Tuesday.
