A day of mourning.

A concert aimed for fans of pop star Ariana Grande became the scene of a tragedy last night after a terrorist attacked a concert venue last night in Manchester, England.

Reuters.com reported on the attack noting that "A suicide bomber killed at least 22 people and wounded 59 at a packed concert hall in the English city of Manchester in what Prime Minister Theresa May called a sickening act targeting children and young people."

President Trump extended his condolences to the families who were affected and called the attackers "evil losers," according to CNN.com

The hall was packed with young fans of Grande, an international pop superstar with fans all over the world. Grande, who reportedly had finished performing when the attack occurred, reacted to the news on Twitter.
