O2 Arena evacuated after suspected terror attack

Police have evacuated the O2 Arena in London after a suspected terror attack

People were seen running from the venue shortly after 10pm on Friday night

The Metropolitan Police said they were called to the arena at 10.09pm following reports of a disturbance.

A spokesperson for the force said: "Officers are on scene and the incident is being treated as a suspected terror attack."

The O2 Arena is one of the largest indoor arenas in the world, with a capacity of over 20,000 people.

It is hosting a number of events this weekend, including a performance by the American singer Mariah Carey.

The Metropolitan Police said they were unable to provide any further information at this stage.

The incident comes just days after the terror attack at Manchester Arena, in which 22 people were killed.
