Lee Rigby’s mum reaches out to Manchester terror attack victim’s families after atrocity on 4th anniversary of drummer’s death

LEE RIGBY'S mum has reached out to the families of the victims of the Manchester attack - which took place on the anniversary of her son's death.

The Fusilier was butchered by sick fanatics outside Woolwich Barracks in South East London exactly four years ago.

In a chilling echo of his death, 22 people have been killed by a suicide bomber at an Ariana Grande gig.

And today his mum Lyn called on everyone to "stand together against terrorism" and that her "heart goes out" to all the families affected.

She said today's events had taken her "back to how we felt as a family as events unfolded via the media in front of our eyes."

Lyn Rigby went on: "Feeling out of control, helpless, panicked every parents worse nightmare. Waiting for confirmation that Lee was involved.

On an evening when families with children were out enjoying themselves, some parents find themselves now in the same situation.

"Whole families affected forever.

"We must stand together against terrorism."

Last night's incident in Manchester was the worst terror attack in the UK in more than ten years, when 56 people were killed when suicide bombers targeted the London transport network in June 2005.
