Explosion at MEN Arena/Victoria Station

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.

Problem is mate at the end of the concert the doors would have be open so not much could be done.
 
wtf now seeing someone on facebook saying they are locked in oldham hospital........someone outside with gun
 
If it was in London I'd still be as shocked. Something like that hasn't happened in the uk for a long time.
If it's a major pre-planned attack it's the first since the tube and bus bombings in London. Fair enough there was the attack on Westminster bridge earlier in the year but you can't really plan for someone with a few knives and a car.
 
It doesnt really but the closer you are to it the more it affects you personally.
Yes I understand that, and its also my city, even though I live 170 miles away these days. I feel just as bad when its Paris, or Brussels, or Berlin. My son lives in Manchester now so its close to me, though I know he's not involved.
 
Two hours and no confirmed reports of anything yet? Strange.

Just heartbreaking. Our brazilians were playing beach football with ecstatic kids round the corner from that today, kids, KIDS were attending the concert tonight. What the fuck have kids done?
 
Saw a dashcam clip that caught the sound of the explosion. I can't think of any structure in the foyer to make such a big sound, unless it was beneath ground?
