Last night terrified witnesses to the Manchester Arena ‘terrorist attack’ spoke of their horror at the atrocity that unfolded before them.
Horrifying footage showed petrified children leaping over fences as they desperately t
ried to escape the 21,000-seat venue.
Here are some of the eyewitness accounts of those caught up in the traumatic attack.

Abby Mullen from Airdire, North Lanakshire who was at the event said: ‘As we were leaving a bomb or explosion went off centimetres in front of me. People’s skin and faeces where everywhere including in my hair and on my bag.

‘I’m still finding bits of God knows what in my hair. You never ever expect these things to happen to you but this proves it can happen to anybody.

‘That sound, the blood and those who were running around clueless with body parts and bits of skin missing will not be leaving my mind any time soon or the minds of those involved.’

Gary Walker, from Leeds, was with his wife in the foyer waiting to pick up his two daughters who were at the concert.

He said: ‘I was waiting for the kids to come out. We heard the last song, and quite a few people were flooding out and then suddenly there was a massive flash and then a bang, smoke.

‘I felt a bit of pain in my foot and my leg. My wife said, “I need to lie down”. I lay her down, she’d got a stomach wound and possibly a broken leg.

‘I was about three metres from the actual explosion. I am surprised I got away so lightly.’

He added his wife was taken out of the building on a table used as a ‘makeshift stetcher’.
