Father shares pictures of his 14-year-old daughter who suffered serious injuries in Manchester bomb attack visited by Theresa May
A FATHER has shared heart-wrenching pictures of his 14-year-old daughter after she was seriously injured in the Manchester terror attack.
Craig Mills, from Harrogate, North Yorks, posted images of his stricken daughter Evie after she was caught up in the suicide bombing at Manchester Arena.
The morning after the attack, which saw 22 people killed and 64 wounded, the dad took to social media to reveal his “little princess” had been hurt in the blast.
Craig also shared a post by his son, Cal, which included a snap of his bloodied sister being treated by medics.
Evie is seen wrapped in blankets with her head tilted to one side and blood around her head and neck.

Alongside the image, Cal wrote: “I wouldn't normally post things like this but last night my 14-year-old little sister was in the midst of the bombing at the MEN arena.
“So so lucky she's going to be okay but she's been in hospital all night now with quite serious damage to her legs and chest.
“Some sick b*****d has caused E to experience something she'll never ever forget and it'll affect her forever now.
“No one’s safe anywhere now, love you so much E.”
Cal posted another picture on Facebook today, showing Evie lying in her hospital bed.
The PM Theresa May can be seen standing next to the traumatised teen.
With it Cal wrote: “Evie came out of her successful operation on her leg last night, she'll need another on Thursday but she is doing so well!
"Thank you so much to everyone for your kind messages, it's really amazing for Evie and our family to know she's got all this support, even Theresa May popped in to send her best wishes!!”
Craig spoke of his relief in an emotional post late last night.
He wrote: “Without a doubt the scariest 24 hours of my life, the good news is the surgery went well, it's rest all day tomorrow but needs another operation Thursday. Love you Evie Mills.”
The names of those who were less fortunate are now beginning to be made public after their families are informed.
Among the dead are an off duty female cop, a brave aunt who shielded her 11-year-old niece from nail-bomb blast, and an eight-year-old girl whose critically ill mum doesn’t even know her daughter’s fate.
The bomber has now been named as British-born Salman Abedi, 22, who is believed to have recently travelled to Syria and had “proven” links with ISIS.
