A man on trial for murder after ploughing into the back of a motorbike, killing its 17-year-old rider, told a 999 operator 'I think he's dead', a court has heard.
Harley Lea suffered fatal head injuries when he was thrown from the motorbike after it was struck by Brandon Glover's Toyota Corolla on Park Road, near the junction of Blackbrook Road and Boardmans Lane, in the early hours of October 4 2022. Two other men, Jordan Carter and Louis Coleman, who were passengers on Mr Lea's bike, were also injured.
Brandon Glover, 24, of Pasture Close in Clock Face, previously pleaded not guilty to murder, manslaughter, two counts of grievous bodily harm with intent, and two counts of attempted GBH and is now on trial at Liverpool Crown Court. Following the incident, Glover remained at the scene and called emergency services.
