MANCHESTER, United Kingdom (Reuters) – British police arrested a man on Friday (May 26) in the Manchester suburb of Moss Side, the tenth person to be taken into custody in connection with Monday night’s attack.

Television images aired on Friday showed the aftermath of a raid conducted earlier in the week in the same suburb.

Greater Manchester police said in a tweet that eight men are now in custody after a man and a woman were released without charge.

Also on Friday, police put up a cordon outside a barber shop in Moss Side which media reports say has been raided.

A suicide bomber killed at least 22 people in a packed concert hall in Manchester, in what British Prime Minister Theresa May called a sickening act targeting children and young people.
