Charlotte Fawell who lost her mother Wendy in the Manchester bombing

A survivor of the Manchester bombing has taken in the daughter of her best friend who was killed in the atrocity and has vowed to ‘love her like her own’.

Caroline Davies and Wendy Fawell were at Manchester Arena to collect their children who were among thousands piling out of the venue having watched Ariana Grande when Salman Abedi blew himself up, murdering 22.

One of those who lost their lives in the massacre was Wendy Fawell, tragically leaving her daughter Charlotte, 15, without a mother.

Caroline Davies, who said losing Wendy was more like having a sister taken away than a friend, is determined to ‘not let hate win’ and has promised to care for Charlotte as if she were her own child.

In a cruel twist of fate, Wendy and Caroline split up to make sure they didn’t miss Charlotte and Caroline’s sons Lee, 16, and Ben, 12.

Unknowingly, Wendy Fawell walked into the path of depraved ISIS-inspired terrorist Abedi.

Charlotte is currently with the Davies family in Otley, West Yorkshire, and had the heartbreaking task of identifying her mother’s body, according to the Sunday People.

In one still, he stares ahead as his hand rests in his pocket, perhaps checking the trigger of the explosive device that he would use to murder teenagers and young children at the Ariana Grande concert in the Manchester Arena.

The images, taken from CCTV cameras, were released yesterday by detectives piecing together the final movements of the callous killer.

And in both pictures, the police have blacked out the background, suggesting they wished to protect the identities of people standing next to him at the time.

The exact location of the image has not been given by officers, but it is believed he could have been in a lift on the way to the Arena’s box office.

Only the straps of the rucksack – a bag containing tricyclic acetone peroxide, bolts and nails – are visible in the pictures. At 10.30pm, he detonated the ‘highly sophisticated’ device, that injured 119 people.

Thousands of people have attended vigils and laid flowers to victims after the attack on Monday night, with a ‘I [love] MCR’ becoming a mantra of the city as it heals

FATHER HID BOMBER’S BODY FROM MANCHESTER VICTIMS

Darron Coster, 50, was waiting for his son Charlie, 20, when Salman Abedi detonated a nail bomb during the Ariana Grande concert at the Manchester Arena

A brave father hid the dismembered body of the Manchester terror attacker after rushing to the aid of injured youngsters.

Darron Coster, 50, was waiting for his son Charlie, 20, when Salman Abedi detonated a nail bomb during the Ariana Grande concert at the Manchester Arena.

The former Royal Military Police staff sergeant said his military training ‘kicked in’ when he heard the blast and he immediately ran into the arena to search for his son.

Once in the venue Mr Coster applied tourniquets to bleeding victims, dealt out first aid, directed arena staff to give out water, and spoke to relatives of those too stunned to communicate.

The lorry driver, who was in the military police for 22 years, was also the first to lay eyes on the torso of Abedi and quickly hid it behind a set of doors in order to shield traumatised concert goers from the gory scene.

Mr Coster, whose son survived the attack after waiting for a friend outside a block of toilets, described the scenes as ‘pandemonium’.

He told the Sun: ‘A few people were obviously dead. They were motionless. There were children. I just tried to find people who were moving that I could help.’

Twenty two people were murdered and 119 injured when suicide bomber Abedi set off the explosives in his rucksack.

Discussing the moment he saw ISIS inspired fanatic’s body, Mr Coster said: ‘I could see half of his body halfway inside.

‘I went over and closed the doors because I didn’t want anyone seeing that.

‘It looked like he had been blown inside the doors. I didn’t want to look.’
