Chief Constable 'doing everything they can' to solve gun murders

Three murder scenes involving guns were visited by the Merseyside Police chief constable and others today in a bid to reassure frightened residents.

Chief Constable Serena Kennedy went on a "walkabout" around Kingsheath Avenue, Dovecot, scene of the brutal murder of nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel on Monday night, along with others including the police and crime commissioner and Metro Mayor Steve Rotheram.

Members of the group then moved on to the scene where Ashley Dale, 28, was shot dead in her own back garden in Leinster Road, Old Swan, in the early hours of Sunday, and finally to the scene where 22-year-old Sam Rimmer was shot dead on Lavrock Bank, Dingle, at around 11.40pm on Tuesday, August 16.
