Parents told of their shock after a man was shot near a park that's popular with children and dog walkers.
A section of Everton Park remains sealed off by police today after shots were fired in the Everton Brow area at around 10.30pm last night (Tuesday). At around 10.45pm, Merseyside Police said they received reports that a man had taken himself to the Royal Liverpool Hospital with gunshot wounds.
He was dropped off at the hospital on an electric bike, which was reported to have driven off down Prescot Road. A police helicopter was seen circling over Everton Park at around midnight as neighbours looked outside to see what was going on.
