Liverpool man shot in back says he 'feels sorry' for gunman

Shaun Byrne, 35, was drinking with friends outside a bar in Venice Beach, Los Angeles, when an altercation took place with an American man in the street. A friend of the man pulled out a handgun and chased Shaun, from Old Swan, and his friend, from Birmingham, before opening fire at close range.
