(BBC) Fire control room staff were not invited to take part in terror attack training before the Manchester Arena bombing, an inquiry has heard.
North West Fire Control’s (NWFC) Michelle Gregson told the Manchester Arena inquiry her colleagues were “overlooked” during training in 2016.
The team leader said not being invited to the exercise was “extraordinary.”
She added that there had been “no recognition” that such incidents began with a call to the control room.
The inquiry has been looking at the emergency response to the bombing of the venue on 22 May 2017, which killed 22 people and injured hundreds more.
