Derby North MP Catherine Atkinson said she was "deeply shocked" by the incident.
Posting on Facebook, she said: "My thoughts are with those injured and I'm grateful to our emergency services."
One person who arrived at the scene shortly after the incident told the Derby Telegraph there were "people on the floor".
"It was such a frightening experience. We came around the corner and there was just people everywhere," they said.
"We didn't realise what had happened and then we slowly realised that it was something bad."
A section of Friar Gate is expected to be closed for some time and people are asked to avoid the area.
Baggy Shanker, the MP for Derby South, said his thoughts were with "everyone who has been affected and with their loved ones".
He added: "Thank you to the emergency services for their response. Derbyshire Police have confirmed a man has been arrested and that they do not believe there is an ongoing risk to the public."
