Blink-182 bassist Mark Hoppus has said the band were "locked down" in a hotel following the mass shooting in El Paso.

 

The group had been due to play a show at the UTEP Don Haskins Arena in the Texas border town when 20 people were killed and more than two dozen injured in a shooting in a busy shopping centre.

 

Hoppus said the band were leaving breakfast and due to head to the mall when they heard reports of the shooting.

 

He added there were initially incorrect reports that another attack was also taking place at another mall.
