The heartbroken family of a nine-year-old girl who was shot in her own home said she blew people away with her wit and kindness.
Olivia Pratt-Korbel was rushed to Alder Hey Children's Hospital in Liverpool in a critical condition after being shot in the chest at around 10pm on Monday night. The youngster, known to her family as 'Liv', sadly died a short time later.
A man also suffered gunshot wounds to his body and a woman was shot in the hand during the incident in the house, on Kingsheath Avenue in the Knotty Ash area of Liverpool. Detectives say the two victims were taken to hospital for treatment.
