Liverpool Victory Parade: Driver Charged After Car Hits Crowd
Liverpool Victory Parade: Driver Charged After Car Ploughs Into Jubilant Crowd A somber mood hangs over Liverpool following Monday's shocking incident at the city's Premier League victory parade. A car sped into a crowd of jubilant fans on Water Street, injuring at least 79 people, including four children. Seven of the injured remain hospitalized, but all are reported to be in stable condition. Merseyside Police swiftly launched an investigation, collecting a significant amount of evidence, including witness statements and video footage. Today, the Crown Prosecution Service authorized the police to charge 53-year-old Paul Doyle from West Derby with two serious offences: dangerous driving and causing grievous bodily harm with intent. Sarah Hammond, Chief Crown Prosecutor for Mersey-Cheshire, stated in a press conference, "It is important to ensure that every victim gets the justice they deserve." Doyle will appear before Liverpool Magistrates' Court on Friday, May 30th. The investigation is ongoing, but the charges highlight the seriousness of the incident that marred what should have been a day of celebration for thousands of Liverpool FC supporters. The city hopes for a swift resolution and justice for the injured.
