An arrest has been made at a service station in Manchester, in connection to last month's attack at Ariana Grande's concert. 

Manchester police released a statement today saying they arrested a 20-year-old man on Cheetham Hill Road "on suspicion of offences contrary to the terrorism act", Manchester Evening News reports.

As it stands 18 people have been arrested in connection with the investigation, of which six people have been released without charge.

Images and video posted to social media showed officers making the arrest, and cars being towed from the forecourt. 

The incident took place at a Texaco garage, around 400m from Manchester Arena where last month's attack took place.

Ariana Grande’s 'One Love' benefit concert is scheduled to take place Sunday night (local time).

A police cordon was in place, but has now been lifted.
