Bomb disposal units now at scene
Nothing I can think of in the foyer. I was hoping it was 'just' a power issue and nothing more sinister, but the more you hear, the worse it appears.What do they have near the entrances that could possibly combust in such a manor? Do they have people inflating balloons with canisters at all or?. I know it is a long shot as they have safety valves in case you knock the head, just trying to look at all possible angles before assuming the worst.

It wasn't that, but it was pretty much as bad as that, thankfully it was spotted before most people saw it.If anybody posts any pictures of injured or dead kids banning will be the least of their fucking problems. Well done mods.

Do bomb disposal unit arrive as a pro-caution or does it definitely mean it's not over?

TBH par for the course - Police will be jumpy and responding to a number of alerts. I was in Palma Nova a few years ago when a member of the Guarda Civil was car bombed and sadly killed and for the next couple of days there were cars screeching around and armed cops jumping out and legging it into buildings before calmly leaving a few minutes later.

They will attend anything like this, its unlikely, but not impossible, there would be another, but they need to to check the venue completely.Do bomb disposal unit arrive as a pro-caution or does it definitely mean it's not over?

I feel absolutely sick to the stomach and am shaking with fury.
It's kids at a concert ffs.
In our City.
Chances are this will have impacted users of this forum. A lot of friends of my daughter were there and are thankfully all accounted for, but someone s children aren't coming home tonight.
Hope this thread remains respectful, and RIP to those who have died.
This. Absolutely devastated by this in our city

Good. There are families who will have lost their kids. We have to show respect for their torment right now.

Looking at the tweets of relatives and friends of the missing kids is killing me.
I was going to say, entrances and walkways are a security and H/S focus, so I'd imagine it was someone with access, or someone who found their way into a 'secure' area - making it easy to spot them on CCTV.
Anyone can walk into the lobby/box office at the Arena, unfortunately.
