Ariana Grande said she’s ‘broken’ in a tweet after 19 people died and 59 were injured amid a suspected terrorist attack at her Monday evening concert at the Manchester Arena in Manchester, England, adding, ‘from the bottom of my heart, [I] am so so sorry. [I] don’t have words.’
Her manager Scooter Braun said, ‘Our hearts are broken’ as they mourned ‘the lives of children and loved ones taken by this cowardly act,’ thanking authorities in Manchester for their rapid response to the disastrous occurrence. He added: ‘We ask all of you to hold the victims, their families, and all those affected in your hearts and prayers.’
The 23-year-old singer has suspended her The Dangerous Woman Tour, TMZ reported, adding that the singer was ‘in no condition to perform,’ and organizers take another look at security conditions for the remaining dates.
oncertgoers who witnessed the carnage told the Press Association in Britain that at about 10:35 p.m., a pair of loud explosions were heard in the building. Majid Khan, 22, said that ‘a huge bomb-like bang went off that hugely panicked everyone, and we were all trying to flee the arena.’
Father-of-two Shaun Hunter, who brought his daughters, ages 12 and 10 to the show, told The Times of London there was a ‘a stampede’ of attendees toward the exits after the explosion. He noted, ‘I saw one bloke carrying his daughter – she was bleeding.’
Robert Tempkin, 22, described the situation that unfolded amid the disaster: ‘Everyone was screaming and running … there were coats and people’s phones on the floor. People just dropped everything.’
