John Boyega Faces Bomb Scare Following Ariana Grande Attack

Published: Saturday 27th May 2017 by David

The Nigerian actor John Boyega has been forced to evacuate the building in which he was performing a stage play in following a bomb scare.

The star was performing at London’s Old Vic theatre today when he was rushed out of the building after a suspicious and potentially lethal object was found inside.

He, along with the 1,000 fans who arrived to see him live, were removed from the location and directed to an evacuation spot by police days after 22 people were murdered by a suicide bomber at an Ariana Grande concert.

An audience member revealed:

When an evacuation happens it’s either a fire drill or it might be a bomb.

The company manager came on while John Boyega was on stage, asked the audience to remain calm and said the show was going to end. Then the duty manager said ‘please evacuate’.

A spokesman for the Metropolitan police shared…

Police were called at 14:38pm on Saturday, May 27, to The Cut, Waterloo, to a report of a security alert at a theatre.

The theatre took the decision to evacuate the building. Road closures have been put in place. Specialist officers are on the scene.
