Barcelona Witness: ‘We Didn’t Know Why or What Was Happening’ and ‘We Were Really Scared’

‘We were surrounded by sirens’

RUSH EXCERPT:

FEARON: "Yes, obviously it was a bit of a serious scary situation to be in, because we were caught up in panic, but we did not know why or what was happening. And so, we were really scared. And there was a small gap in the shutter that I could see outside from where I had taken — it looked like a ghost town, but there were police everywhere. Blue flashing lights, and all you could hear was the ambulance ambulance. After about 45 or 50 minutes, the shutter went up, and — solid 20 minutes of not being able to move anywhere. And we were told to get back inside. The shutter went down again. And although we knew was apparently there were two men, and that there was a possible hostile situation. The shutters went down again, and then we really started to panic. We did not know what was going on. And we were surrounded by sirens sirens. And pandemonium."
