The victim of a pub shooting that sent shockwaves across Merseyside will be laid to rest today.
Elle Edwards, 26, died after being shot in the head by the front entrance of the Lighthouse pub, Wallasey Village, shortly before midnight on Christmas Eve. Elle was hit alongside five men, aged between 22 and 33, with the other victims all surviving their injuries.
The popular beautician, from New Brighton, was celebrating with her sister and friends, and detectives say she was not the intended target of the shooting. Her dad, Tim Edwards, said in a recent Sky News interview that he was hoping to set up a foundation in his daughter's name.
