MANCHESTER, England (Reuters) - A major shopping centre in the northern English city of Manchester was reopened after it was temporarily evacuated, a Reuters witness said on Tuesday (May 23).
Police had begun removing a cordon and workers were slowly being allowed back into site, he said.
Earlier on Tuesday, a separate Reuters witness reported scores of people running from the Arndale shopping centre, with some saying they had heard a big bang.
At least 22 people, including some children, were killed and 59 were wounded when a suicide bomber struck as thousands of fans streamed out of a concert by US singer Ariana Grande in the English city of Manchester on Monday. (May 22)
