On Monday night, explosions were reported at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England. According to police, at least 19 people were killed and around 50 were injured. Quickly following reports of the deadly incident, there was an outpouring of mourning and tributes online under #PrayForManchester and #PrayForAriana. Grande's representative confirmed that the singer is OK.

While initial reports have yet to confirm what happened with the explosions, police are reportedly investigating it as a potential terrorist incident. Loud bangs were heard at the end of the concert, and police immediately responded to the incident, requesting that people stay away, as there were a number of fatalities.
