A car that could be "significant" in the investigation into the Manchester Arena bombing has been seized by police.

Officers have now lifted a cordon that was in place in Rusholme today as they examined the vehicle.

The white Nissan Micra has now been seized by police and enquiries concerning the vehicle are ongoing. A search is continuing at Devell House, near Banff Road.

Detective Chief Superintendent Russ Jackson, Head of the North West Counter Terrorism Unit said: “This is potentially a significant development in the investigation. The car is a white Nissan Micra that has been located at Devell House, not far from Banff Road.

“We appreciate the road closures and evacuation have led to disruption and we would like to thank local people for their understanding while this police activity has been on-going.

"We are also really grateful for the public’s continued help in what is a very fast moving investigation and again we appeal for the public to contact us with any information, however small you believe it may be, about Abedi’s movements.”
