A 19-year-old man was arrested in Manchester on Sunday evening, making him the 15th person to be picked up by British police in connection with the suicide bombing at the Manchester Arena, which killed 22 people.
The suspect was taken into custody “on suspicion of offences contrary to the terrorism act,” Greater Manchester Police said on Twitter.
He was arrested after police searched an address southeast of downtown Manchester with police saying they also carried out searches in the inner-city area just south of the city centre.
