This is the best summary I could come up with:

An arrest has been made following reports of a man seen on social media dressed as the Manchester Arena bomber.

North Yorkshire Police said it had "received complaints about a man wearing an offensive costume depicting murderer Salman Abedi".

The force said a man was arrested on 1 November on suspicion of using a public communication network to send offensive messages and other offences.

He has since been released on conditional police bail.

Abedi was responsible for the deaths of 22 people in the suicide attack at Manchester Arena on 22 May 2017.
