A survivor of the Manchester Arena bombing atrocity has finally met the hero he credits with saving his life. Paul Price, who suffered life-changing injuries in the terror attack five years ago next month, said his children wouldn't have a father without the actions of T-shirt and poster seller Paul Reid.
Paul's partner, police officer Elaine McIver, 43, lost her life in the suicide bombing on May 22, 2017 - one of 22 murdered by Salman Abedi. Mr Reid, 48, was one of the first on the scene after Abedi detonated a device in a rucksack and stayed with Paul, keeping him conscious until an ambulance arrived.
In a new ITV documentary Paul, who gave evidence at the Arena public inquiry, tells how he was waiting for his daughter, Gabrielle, then aged 13, at the concert venue together with Elaine. "I know Paul doesn't think so, but he's a hero," he says. "I was lying on the floor dying and there were a lot of people understandably running away.
