Dozens injured after car ploughs into Liverpool crowd

Four children are among almost 50 people injured after a car ploughed into a crowd during Liverpool FC’s Premier League victory parade on Monday evening.

Some 27 people were taken to hospital, and two suffered serious injuries – including a child.

A 53-year-old white British man has been arrested and is believed to be the driver of the vehicle, Merseyside Police say. They aren’t treating the incident as terrorism.

Liverpool City Region Mayor Steve Rotheram told the BBC the “euphoria” of the day was “overshadowed” by the incident, adding it’s now “important to let the police do their job”
