Club assisting police

For those of you wondering if there is any more news forthcoming, I'd urge patience.

Understandably, it is a complicated picture at the King Power Stadium as authorities investigate what has happened. Leicester City say they are assisting Leicestershire Police and will issue a statement once more information has been confirmed.

People are starting to arrive in more and more numbers, by the dozens now. A small memorial has been set up outside of turnstiles 54 and 57, which is next to the club shop.

There is a memorial which has been gated off and there is a picture of Ganesha, who is an important Hindu figure. Next to that there are lots of bunches of flowers laid and propped up against the stadium. I can see two dozen people standing by the memorial and looking, simply looking, and not knowing how to react and how to deal with what’s going on.

There is only a small section of the ground that is open. There is a police cordon to my left and the crash site is behind that, no more than 400-500 yards away.
