People living close to where reckless thugs let off gunshots yards from a children's play park believe local drugs gangs are involved in a dangerous dispute.
Today an apparent bullet-hole was visible in a window on a ground floor flat opposite Picton Playground on Mill Lane, Wavertree. Children's toys including a slide and small football nets were also visible in the front yard of the property.
The shooting, at around 7.10pm, followed what detectives believe was a "chase" involving four masked men riding a scooter and bikes, which was first reported around an hour earlier. Residents in the flats also described seeing two Scrambler type bikes prior to the gunfire.
