Mum of Manchester attack hero: I didn't know he was homeless
A woman who found out her son was homeless when she read about how he helped people after the Manchester Arena bomb attack says she just wants to 'talk to him'.
Chris Parker who was begging in the foyer of the arena ran to the blast zone to help people who were injured. His mother Jessica, who last spoke to him six months ago and hasn't seen him for years, had no idea he was sleeping rough until she read about his bravery.
Jessica Parker told 5 live's Nihal Arthanayake she now just wants to 'talk to him' and give support him if he wants that support.
