Anyone think it could be a bomb on a train underneath the Arena?
Manchester Arena Bombing 22.05.17

- Start date
Deaths could be from crushing? Seems like people screaming and panicking like that can't be a good thing.
Obviously the explosion was more than a balloon to be heard from miles away, hope it's just a very unfortunate accident.

Potentially. Seems all speculation at this moment in time until we have actual witness accounts/Investigation.
There's footage of people leaving via the station
So fecked, horrible news. There's so many kids there too 
Guy on BBC news was there, thinks there's potentially 20-30 young fatalities. Blew him 30 feet off his feet through doors.
Hopefully not as bad as it currently seems.

This doesn't sound good at all.
Sky News seem desperate to mention terrorism as often as possible
Yeah, that guy doesn't paint a good picture. Sounds awful
Over an hour ago and such little confirmed news
Dunno if that's really a bad thing or,not

Guy just on to bbc saying 20 - 30 facilities
Is the flash in the video Olly posted the train station or the Arena, I've never been in there so not sure.
Station side
Lots of injuries. All have looked like they could be from a stampede so far. Not to say that both an explosion and a stampede couldn't have happened.
That's the station
If anyone wants it
Guy on BBC News said it happened by the box office.

Any chance of a summary?
Thought so, thanks guys.
Explosion by the box office, not in the actual arena
Quite a few dead including kids
Guy was waiting for his kids to come out and saw it and saw bodies (his kids are okay).
That's why i'm watching BBC. They to their credit are staying impartial to the idea of accident or whatever.
Yea I switched over
Seen a new picture on a Facebook comment. It's a picture of a picture on a phone. Won't share as it could be another bullshit one.
Just saw it. If its true then nobody in that area stood a chance
This guy on BBC keeps saying it's confirmed the fatalities were caused by the explosion
People lying on the floor and a man tending to one of them.
Gas filled balloons ? Sounds a bit off.
Helium's inert...
Done. Can you delete it from your quote please?
People going to enjoy a concert ffs. No matter what the cause this is just dreadful.
Jesus christ it feels so surreal when it's so close to home. Praying that death toll does not rise.
Surely if it was balloons people would know that it was those that caused the explosion?
At an Arianne Grande concert there'll be a huge amount of kids too. Horrible.
