Suzy Mitchell, 26, whose flat is opposite the venue, reported a huge bang rocking the neighbourhood.

She told the Press Association: “(I) just heard a huge bang from my bed, came out to the front of my apartments (we’re on the top floor so have perfect view) and everyone was running away in big crowds.

“The bang was so big I heard it from my room which is at the back of the apartment blocks.

“Currently lots of emergency services going to and from. But can’t see anything substantial as of yet except fleeing people and lots of cars.”

I was right about the running crowds!

'Confirmed fatalities' after explosions at Ariana Grande concert

HERE are a number of confirmed deaths at Manchester Arena following an explosion at an Ariana Grande concert, police have said.

Twitter users reported that thousands of concert goers fled the arena  covered in blood and crying, although it is not immediately clear what the reported "loud bangs" were.

The noises were heard towards the end of the show, with witnesses claiming on social media they believed the bangs were a "gun shot" or a "bomb".

I don't know if this is going to pan out, apparently there is an early report of a balloon bursting.  So, we will see; I know for myself, terrorism is already going through my mind.

"Some people were screaming they'd seen blood but other people were saying it was balloons busting or a speaker had been popped.

So what are we talking about? A huge helium balloon or something?

A panic induced stampede would be the only way that would happen.

Eyewitness Andy Holey says he saw 'several bodies'

Andy Holey, whose wife and daughter were at the concert, told BBC News that the explosion was near to a ticket office, and he was blown off his feet when it happened.

He said he saw several bodies around him when he came to.
