An innocent schoolgirl was shot in the neck after a gunman fired six bullets at a man he had been chasing on an electric bike.
The 15-year-old was waiting with a friend at a bus stop on Upper Warwick Street in Toxteth when she was hit by one of the gunshots discharged by Rio Jones. The bullet then travelled through her body and out of her chest, causing her "very serious injuries".
Meanwhile, the "target" was struck by another of the shots - which passed through his arm. Nineteen-year-old Jones, of Jermyn Street in Toxteth, today went on trial accused of attempting to murder both casualties.
