At least 19 people have died and 50 others were injured after an explosion at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, on Monday night. Police are treating the incident as a terrorist attack until they know otherwise.
Ariana Grande is said to be OK.
A concert attendee said, “We were all exiting the venue after the concert when around 10.40-45 p.m.-ish, a huge bomb-like bang went off that hugely panicked everyone and we were all trying to flee the arena.”
“It was one bang and everyone from one side of the arena where the bang was heard from suddenly came running towards us as they were trying to exit a particular entrance that was
blocked so everyone was just running to any exit they could find as quickly as they could.
“Everyone was in a huge state of panic, calling each other as some had gone to the toilet whilst this had gone off, so it was just extremely disturbing for everyone there,” he added.
Another concert goer who attended the show with his wife and two daughters said he heard a massive bang and saw a flash as the concert ended, then realized his wife had been injured, suffering a stomach wound and possibly a broken leg.
