Armed police smashed in a front door and shouted "get your hands up" as they cordoned off a street.
Merseyside Police received a call at around 5.50pm on Tuesday, June 6, reporting a man had been seen in possession of a suspected gun in Rawcliffe Road in Walton. Police arrived in force a short time later with patrol cars, matrix cars, a dog unit and armed police.
