Five people have been stabbed by a knifeman inside Manchester Arndale.
One person is said to be seriously injured following the attacks outside the Next store inside the shopping centre.
Counter Terror officers are leading the investigation but police say they are keeping an open mind about the motivation of the 'terrible incident.'
A man in his 40s has been arrested at the scene on suspicion of serious assault.
One video, recorded outside the shopping mall on Church Street, shows officers deploying a Taser and holding a man to the group.
The Arndale was evacuated and Exchange Square metrolink station has been closed but many people working in and close to the Arndale have been put on lockdown.
