Omg my friend is there, he said there was a loud bang and a stampede to get out

Alf 22-05-2017 10:34 PM

Granada news saying, two loud bangs, debris falling. People running away with blood on them.

andybigbro 22-05-2017 10:34 PM

Police calling it a serious incident now :worry:

UserSince2005 22-05-2017 10:34 PM

**** Ariana better not be hurt!

Alf 22-05-2017 10:35 PM

Reports of a balloon popping and then a stampede.

Babayaro. 22-05-2017 10:35 PM

Apparently it was something to do with the speaker?? Not confirmed though

smudgie 22-05-2017 10:37 PM

The trains have been stopped due to a blockage.

UserSince2005 22-05-2017 10:37 PM

I heard it was very serious

Denver 22-05-2017 10:38 PM

If it was a terrorist attack it would be more then 2 loud bangs

Denver 22-05-2017 10:46 PM

People have died

Denver 22-05-2017 10:46 PM

UserSince2005 22-05-2017 10:48 PM

Oh no this sounds huge

UserSince2005 22-05-2017 10:49 PM

To just come straight out that people have died, means it's going to be a big number
Took ages for someone to be confirmed dead during the london attack the other month

Alf 22-05-2017 10:49 PM

Reports of multiple fatalities.

A couple of my close friends were there and luckily they're safe but holy **** this is so close to home and I'm so glad they're okay
I can't actually believe this has happened

MB. 22-05-2017 10:50 PM

Awful

Jordan. 22-05-2017 10:54 PM

Arena security needs improving massively

Denver 22-05-2017 10:55 PM

Lets not rush into >Terrorist attack could be other things

Surprised my boys went to wrestling at the O2 a few weeks back and security was tight

smudgie 22-05-2017 10:58 PM

Saying now that it was near the booking/ ticket office.
A witness said he was blown off his feet by the explosion and he saw many bodies around him.
Looks to be very serious.

Greg! 22-05-2017 10:59 PM

This is so shocking I cannot believe this has happened :(

RichardG 22-05-2017 10:59 PM

**** someone i work with is there :worry:

It's only tight as you're actually going into the arena. I thought this when I see Bieber in October. Plenty of opportunity for a nutcase to blow themselves up outside.

Denver 22-05-2017 11:07 PM

If it is a terrorist attack i am surprised they chose this moment

jaxie 22-05-2017 11:07 PM

Sounds dreadful, still unclear what the cause is.

T* 22-05-2017 11:07 PM

I've read that they weren't doing proper bag checks but this might be twitter being twitter

True, outside you can't police that, I assumed this was inside the venue looks like it happened as people were leaving, might be another cause though, it's not necessarily terrorism

Rob! 22-05-2017 11:08 PM

If it was a terrorist attack, surely with a reported 21,000 people in the arena (is this realistic? I've never been) they would have done it inside the performance area as opposed to the box office?

Ah

Glenn. 22-05-2017 11:10 PM

Most arenas do have metal detectors as you go into the arena. I know the O2 Arena does, but like I say it's only as you go into the actual arena.

Ninastar 22-05-2017 11:11 PM

I know a few people who were there and they've all said it was the scariest thing to ever happen to them... people covered in blood, stampedes and ****... can't even imagine

Glenn. 22-05-2017 11:12 PM

So many people on Twitter offering to take people in.
