It's best to wait until GMP release another statement. I wouldn't listen to any reports on Twitter just yet, some people (for some ****ed up reason) will try and take advantage of this to get followers.

Horrific.

I know a couple of people who live across from the MEN and are reporting on social media what they can see from the window. Sounds terrible

Lots of youngsters have been taken to the Holiday Inn to be kept safe until they can be reunited with parents.
I can't imagine the feelings people are going through not knowing if friends and loved ones are safe.

Manchester really seem to be rallying around everyone affected, it's nice to see that people still have good hearts in this day and age.
