MANCHESTER, England (AP) — British police investigating the Manchester Arena bombing have arrested a ninth man while continuing to search addresses associated with the bomber who killed 22 people. Eight other men are in custody in connection with Monday’s blast, with police and security agencies working to prevent further attacks. Britain’s security level has been upgraded to “critical” meaning officials believe another attack may be imminent.
Authorities are chasing possible links between the bomber, Salman Abedi, and militants in Manchester, elsewhere in Europe, and in North Africa and the Middle East.
Abedi, a college dropout who had grown up in the Manchester area, was known to security services because of his radical views. He was the son of Libyan parents who migrated to Britain in the early 1990s.
He reportedly was in contact with family members just before the attack.
The name of the man arrested in the early hours Friday and those of the eight others in custody were not released. No one has yet been charged in the bombing.

thought they said lone wolf
IIRC, didn’t they used to declare battle victories by numbers of victims, territory ceded, etc.?
Seems like we’re losing on both counts.
The media blackout on pictures of the explosions destructive aftermath is incredible.
Wolves are pack animals by nature.
Nine. That’s a lot of lone wolves.
Not lone wolf. Known wolves.
The Brits are their own worst enemy.
Enjoy your Muslims, you stupid Brits; then lecture us “guncrazy” Yanks for our “racism” and “insensivity”.
And when there’s a massacre, hide the evidence by all means.
“Let’s not be beastly to the Mohammedans!”
I keep reading how law enforcement knows who these people are (like the Tsarnaevs) it it looks more and more like the Lifelock commercial:"I'm not a security guard. I'm a security monitor. Yup, there's a terrorist act in progress."
I know it's not that simple. But take for example the Obama/Clinton/(and yes, Bush) administrations. More effort seems to be spent going after domestic political opponents than actual foreign/domestic enemies.
Lone wolf pack
For hours we were told it was balloons popping.
UK police got butthurt that someone leaked it to the press that it was terrorism and again they got miffed when the Islamist’s name got leaked to the press.
Blew their cover story.
There is a picture of Hillary with the Dad floating around.
And yet Michael Savage and others are “banned in England” because of the rhetoric and words they use on the air and in print.
Meanwhile we’ve all see the “behead those who insult Islam” UK protester photos.
There is a deathwish in that country and now there is a muslim mayor in London.
FOX just announced tenth
You are aware of all the similar failures in the US by our FBI who failed to react or prevent attacks by identified jihadists who had been reported?
Pulse night club for one
They think there is another bomb out there. A current threat. Break out the water board or get ready to pick up more kiddie pieces.
People in Britain need to understand that islam wants genocide in Great Britain. The people of islam cheered when those young girls were slaughtered. They knew no British children would be born from them. They would have killed every girl in that arena if they could have.
