LONDON -- CBS News confirmed Tuesday that the man who blew himself up the previous night at an Ariana Grande concert in Manchester, England, was 23-year-old Salman Abedi, who was known to British authorities prior to the attack.

In a generic statement posted online, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) claimed responsibility for Abedi's suicide bomb attack, which left 22 people dead, including children, at one of the entrances to the Manchester Arena

ISIS always claims responsibility but they never actually proof it

Interesting tactic. You can't get a bomb into the concert, because of security , but you can get one into the crowd leaving the concert.

The fact they went after children is an effective tactic as well, this will be bigger than 7/7.

I'm interested to know if this guy was another "lone wolf" attacker, like most of the recent ones have been.

The others were never lone wolf. Notice how they always arrest a bunch of people after.

As I recall, the arrests after the Westminster guy didn't come to anything and everyone was released afterwards.

So they didn't find the evidence. Also a 23 year old has been arrested in connection with this.
