The family of a "lovely" grandad who died in hospital after a horrific arson attack on his home have demanded "swift justice".
George Redmond was in bed asleep alongside Mary, his wife of 52 years, when their home in Dorien Road, Old Swan, was set alight at around 3.20am on Thursday, September 1. Merseyside Police have confirmed the fire was started deliberately and the ECHO has been told a "petrol can" was left on the driveway of the home by eyewitnesses.
Residents in the street told the ECHO they are "absolutely certain" the attack was a case of mistaken identity and cannot think why anyone would harm the couple.
