British police arrested a 19-year-old man on Sunday, the 15th person to be taken into custody in connection with the Manchester suicide bombing that killed 22 people.

The arrest was made during a raid in the Gorton area of Manchester on "suspicion of offences contrary to the terrorism act", the Greater Manchester police said in a statement on Twitter.

Police said earlier on Sunday they were also searching an address in Rusholme area.

Thirteen men are now in custody after a man and a woman were released without charge.

Wow. That was quick! Makes you wonder how they were able to connect the dots seeing as how the guy blew himself to smithereens.

Sayyyyyyy, you don't suppose they knew something beforehand, do you?

I wonder how Miss Shepard Smith feels now after all his blowing that this was not terrorism.

[no-to-illegals]

LOL Eagle. You’ve just ruined their coverup

[Wolfie]

Is there an an actual connection to the bombing, or are they just getting off their asses and rounding up the usual suspects?

Nice work there Sherlock Holmes Brits. Wait for attack and then arrest the ones you knew about before hand.Then wait for the next, and next..rinse and repeat. Just be sure you clean up the bloody messes you left behind.God forbid UK subjects should be able to defend themselves.Eternal gratitude to our ancestors who saw this cluster coming, revolted and got the hell out of there!

[Organic Panic]

Why would I not be the least bit surprised if all these arrests are of ordinary white Christian Brits that posted anti-Islam “hate speech” after the attack and NOT muslim terrorists that are already known?

[A_Former_Democrat]

Did she actually say that?

[joma89]

That just means they will eventually release 15 people with no action because they do not want to be called ‘racists’.

15. That’s a lot of lone wolves.

All 15 were in the same pack... so it's just a single lone pack of wolves.

Arresting is one thing. Let’s see how many are convicted.

[Palio di Siena]

Convicted is one thing. Let’s see how many are punished.

[Blue Highway]

Did SheepHead Smith ever apologize the very next day when it was known to everyone that this WAS a muslim extremist TERRORIST act?

[Blue Highway]

Punished is one thing see how many are executed.
