The family of a schoolgirl, killed after being knocked down by an unmarked police car, has called for a review into the case.
Kelly Edgar, 11, from Everton, was hit by the Ford Fiesta at the junction of Shaw Street and College Street North at 8.20pm on January 30, 1993, as she walked to her local corner shop to buy some sweets with her 13-year-old sister Leanne.
The car was being driven by on-duty PC Michael Cloherty, 28, who was taking the vehicle to the Merseyside Police garage on Smithdown Lane from his base at St Anne Street. He was charged with reckless driving and appeared before magistrates in November 1993, where the court heard he had been driving at a speed between 30 and 40mph at the time of the tragedy.
