A man was taken to hospital with a back injury after a three vehicle smash.
Emergency services were called to Marian Square at 2.55pm on Tuesday, January 24, following reports of a crash on the road. Once Merseyside Police officers arrived at the scene a short time later, they found three vehicles, a red Ford Focus, a white people carrier and an orange Citroen C3 had collided.
Police requested assistance from Merseyside Fire & Rescue Service and two fire engines and a search and rescue team arrived at 3.05pm. All three vehicles were on four wheels when firefighters arrived at the scene and they got to work straight away preparing to remove people from the Focus and people carrier.
