Mass hysteria from people fleeing the arena and potentially trampling injuries is probably enough for GMP to declare it a serious injury, I hope nobody is seriously injured but there's so much BS floating around it's hard to sort fact from fiction.
It's pretty loud :sApologies for twitter link but this doesn't seem like nothing

edit. could be pyrotechnics I guess.
From Greater Manchester Police:
'Emergency services are currently responding to reports of an explosion at Manchester Arena.
There are a number of confirmed fatalities and others injured.
Please AVOID the area as first responders work tirelessly at the scene.
Details of a casualty bureau will follow as soon as available.'
