Further Arrest Made In Connection To Manchester Bombing

Counter-terror police have made a fresh arrest in connection to the Manchester suicide bombing as officers raid another address in the city.

Greater Manchester Police said a 25-year-old man had been detained on suspicion of terror offences in the Old Trafford area.

A search is also being carried out an address in Moss Side, in the south of the city, as part of the investigation.

Twelve people are now being held in custody after the atrocity at the Manchester Arena left 22 dead.

Police would not comment on whether a controlled blast was used to gain entrance to the property, a tactic used on previous raids.

The latest operation came just hours after the Home Secretary warned that members of bomber Salman Abedi's terror network could still be at large.

Amber Rudd said parts of the suicide attacker's circle were "potentially" unaccounted for, despite optimism that a previous wave of arrests had quelled further threats.

A total of 116 people required hospital care in the wake of the massacre.
