A jury saw CCTV of "intended target" Joseph Nee being bundled out of a car and carried into hospital after he was shot by the gunman who killed Olivia Pratt-Korbel.
Jurors in the trial of Thomas Cashman, who denies any involvement in the shootings, were today (Wednesday) shown the moment 35-year-old Nee was rushed to Whiston Hospital after being transported there "by associates" from outside Olivia's home on Kingsheath Avenue, Dovecot. The jury heard he arrived at 10.17pm on August 22 last year, 17 minutes after the first 999 call.
The video showed Nee being carried by two other men from a vehicle into the entrance of the emergency department, with a fourth man following them on foot. He appeared to be in a state of unconsciousness or semi-consciousness at this time.

Olivia, meanwhile, was "blue lighted" to Alder Hey Children's Hospital by two armed police officers, who arrived at her home at 10.11pm and discovered the child and her mum, Cheryl Korbel, with gunshot wounds. Ms Korbel, 46, was transported to Aintree Hospital at 10.35pm by the North West Ambulance Service.
Manchester Crown Court also heard details of Cashman's movements earlier on the day of the shootings, and the jury were told the defendant accepts footage presented by the prosecution on the afternoon of August 22, up to 8.59pm is of himself.
However David McLachlan, KC, prosecuting, said Cashman does not accept he is a man shown on CCTV recordings from 9pm until after the shooting.
The jury heard having returned to his home on Grenadier Drive in West Derby at around 5.20pm, where he remained for roughly an hour and 20 minutes, the defendant left in his Citroen Berlingo van at 6.42pm.
He was then seen on CCTV taking routes which saw him pass Finch Lane, where Nee would later watch a Liverpool vs Manchester United game at his friend Timothy Naylor's house on the corner of Finch Lane and Kingsheath Avenue. Cashman also visited his half-brother Kevin Dunn at his home, also on Finch Lane, at 7.09pm, remaining in the address for around six minutes.
Nee's own van was not present on the road at this time. However, by the time of the 8pm football match, Nee's Volkswagen Transporter was back outside Mr Naylor's home. The jury heard Cashman then left his home again at 8.04pm and travelled down Finch Lane.
He then returned to Grenadier Drive before heading out in his van once more at 8.31pm, again passing Finch Lane. Cashman went to his sister Coleen's home on Mab Lane after this, staying there for 21 minutes before leaving and parking up on Aspes Road at 8.59pm.
It is after this point that he denies being the man the prosecution have presented to the jury in CCTV footage. Video from then onwards shows a man walking along Finch Lane in the direction of Yew Tree Cemetery.
After the match ended, at 9.52pm, Nee and another friend, Paul Abraham, had left Mr Naylor's house. The suspect was recorded running across Finch Lane onto Kingsheath Avenue running up behind them. CCTV played to the jury recorded three louds bangs showing Mr Abraham fleeing while the gunman stood over Nee - who had fallen to the floor - and pointed a firearm at him.
The man was then caught on CCTV running between houses on Finch Lane before turning into Berryford Road, then continuing onto cul-de-sac Standedge Way. He was then said to have "garden hopped" as he exited the scene of the shooting.
The court heard during the prosecution's opening on Tuesday that a bullet fired by this attacker had travelled through the front door of the Korbel house, hitting Cheryl in the hand then striking nine-year-old Olivia in the chest. David McLachlan, KC, prosecuting, said the armed man had been "relentlessly pursuing" Nee, having approached him and Mr Abraham from behind and fired shots at his "target" with a 9mm self-loading pistol.
Nee was struck in the midriff and fell to the ground, but may have been saved when the gun appeared to "malfunction" as the gunman stood over him. He was able to scramble to his feet and ran towards the Korbel family home, where he barged through the partially open front door.
The gunman, however, had a second firearm - a revolver - and continued to give chase. He fired a further two shots with this weapon - one of which killed Olivia, while the other became lodged in the door frame.
Cashman denies murdering Olivia, the attempted murder of Nee, wounding with intent to inflict grievous bodily harm against Cheryl Korbel and two counts of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life. The trial continues.
