The boss of a security firm says he was
responsible for the 'fake bomb' that caused Manchester United's clash
with Bournemouth to be abandoned.
Chris Reid, managing director of Security Search Management
& Solutions Ltd, said he had forgotten to remove a dummy bomb from
one of Old Trafford's men's toilets after a training exercise on
Wednesday.
Reid revealed the oversight occurred as he had seen a similar device already placed in his bag before he left the ground.
"This mistake is entirely mine. I have to take full responsibility for
leaving a training item behind on Wednesday," said Reid, a retired
Scotland Yard police officer.
Old Trafford had to be evacuated in the hour before United's final
Premier League match of the season, with Bournemouth now having to
travel back to Manchester for a rearranged match on Tuesday night.
