Large police presence. A ‘number’ of injuries. More ambulances arriving.

No confirmation that there has been an explosion. [huh?]

Some reported hearing 2 explosions.

The Brits must be a bit skittish these days.

I wonder why.

All I gotta say is... never trust an ambiguously-gendered midget Eskimo.

What does a "balloon piped and caused a stampede" mean?

CBS News‏Verified account @CBSNews 2m2 minutes ago WATCH: Man says he heard "loud bang" half a mile away from Manchester Arena; it sounded "like a train crash" I highly doubt a balloon popping would cause that kind of noise

Maybe the balloon was drunk.

A donut popping causes a stampede every time.

..."loud bangs"...
The cause of the bangs...

Bangs? Did someone point a finger and go "bang, bang"? Or, did someone point a finger and scream "bang, bang!"? ("loud bangs")

Quite a bit of difference in a bang and an explosion!

Today is the anniversary of Lee Rigby’s murder..I really doubt a balloon popping could have been heard blocks away like some witnesses have stated..expect a cover up to begin anytime now

“Fox News reporting a balloon piped and caused a stampede.”

Seeing that people in apartments near the arena heard and felt the balloon popping, my conclusion is that it’s one heck of a balloon.

According to the news reports, much of the subway in the area is shut down. I wonder if something happened there.

This reeks of an attack.

I got it...popped, not piped.

Don't fret, it could have auto-corrected to "pooped", LOL.

Sure sure... LOL

I’ve probably blamed auto-correct five times as much as it really was the problem.

I make typing errors a lot more than I used to.

Fact is, the auto-correct saves me a lot too.
