(BBC) A senior police officer has described the “overwhelming chaos” he faced in the wake of the 2017 Manchester attack.
Sgt Dave Cawley, of British Transport Police, told the inquiry into the bombing that his training did not prepare him for the scale of injuries.
Twenty-two people were killed and hundreds more injured in the attack.
Sgt Cawley said he tried to hand over command of the scene to a police firearms commander, who seemed in shock and simply stared straight ahead.
“Whilst I was trying to speak directly to him he was staring straight ahead not acknowledging what I was saying,” he said.
