Police secure a cordon blocking access to the Houses of Parliament in central London March 23, 2017 the day after the March 22 terror attack. Britain’s parliament reopened on Thursday with a minute’s silence in a gesture of defiance a day after an attacker sowed terror in the heart of Westminster, killing three people before being shot dead. Sombre-looking lawmakers in a packed House of Commons chamber bowed their heads and police officers also marked the silence standing outside the headquarters of London’s Metropolitan Police nearby. / AFP PHOTO
Police in the northern English city of Manchester are investigating an incident at the Arndale shopping centre, an officer at the scene said on Tuesday.
The centre in Manchester, England, was evacuated and witnesses said they heard a “big bang” on Tuesday, just hours after a suicide bomber killed 22 people and injured 59 in the same area of the city.
Scores of people ran away from the center, a Reuters witness said.
“There are people coming out holding hands,” a Reuters photographer said.
