CCTV footage captures sound of gunshots during shooting of Olivia Pratt-Korbel
A purported surveillance camera footage captured the sound of four gunshots that killed nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel in Liverpool.
While the video only shows the front yard of the house and not the attack, the audio clearly captures the sound of the gunshots.
A 35-year-old man believed to be the target of the fatal shooting that killed Olivia has been arrested and identified as a convicted burglar.
Merseyside Police said the man was on probation but is now detained in hospital and will be recalled to prison to serve the remainder of his licence.
Reports identified him as Joseph Nee, from the Dovecot area of Liverpool, who was jailed for 45 months in 2018 for multiple burglary offences.
He forced his way into the family’s home while trying to flee a masked gunman, and while Olivia lay dying, Nee, who was also shot, was taken to hospital by his friends.
“We are receiving CCTV, we are receiving names, we are receiving information. People are telling us where they were and what areas they were in, which is absolutely fantastic,” said detective chief superintendent Mark Kameen.
