At least 19 people have been killed and 50 injured in a horror blast at Manchester Arena, which police are treating as a possible terror attack.

Hundreds of people fled the arena screaming after hearing 'loud bangs' at the end of an Ariana Grande concert - where many of the gig goers were young female fans of primary school age.

Manchester Arena received backlash online this evening after releasing a statement stating the explosions happened outside the venue.

Greater Manchester Police released a statement earlier that said: "Just before 10.35pm on Monday, May 22, 2017, police were called to reports of an explosion at Manchester Arena.

Greater Manchester Police tweeted: "Police responded to reports of an incident at Manchester Arena.

A woman called Hannah, who was at the concert, told the Guardian there was “quite a loud explosion heard from inside the Manchester arena and it shook, then everyone screamed and tried to get out”.

“The bang was so big I heard it from my room which is at the back of the apartment blocks.". »
