A man was shot in the chest with the same gun used to kneecap another victim only weeks earlier.
A "gang of lads" were heard to shout threats moments before shots were fired on the Green, Broadgreen. A man in his 20s suffered gunshot wounds to his chest and arms during the incident, with a police cordon being put in place around a field known in the area as Rocket Green in the aftermath.
Investigations were also carried out on Queens Drive, Domville Road and Binns Road with further operations taking place on Baden Road in Old Swan and Lindisfarne Green in Croxteth in the days afterwards. Joel Harvey was locked up for 12-and-a-half years this week after being convicted of firearms offences in relation to this and another shooting, which occurred just over a month earlier and saw the then 16-year-old open fire outside a convenience store.
