Liverpool Town Hall fell silent this evening in memory of victims of violent crime including nine-year-old Olivia Pratt-Korbel.
Prior to the start of the Liverpool Council culture and visitor select economy, a minute’s silence was held to remember Dovecot schoolgirl Olivia, Ashley Dale, Karen Dempsey and Sam Rimmer. All four have tragically lost their lives in the last few weeks in violent killings.
Committee chair Cllr Liz Parsons said: “It’s been a particularly difficult week with a number of tragic incidents. We’ve lost Olivia, Ashley, Karen and Sam, and people are rightly shocked and saddened at what’s happened across the city.”
