Detectives desperate to convict the killer of Elle Edwards have outlined two key pieces of evidence they need help from the community with.
The popular 26-year-old beautician was shot in the head at the Lighthouse Pub, Wallasey Village, shortly before midnight on Christmas Eve when a gunman sprayed bullets into a crowded area. Elle was not the intended target, detectives believe, and four other men aged between 22 and 33 were also wounded in the incident.
Today Elle's dad, photographer Tim Edwards, sat quietly beside Detective Superintendent Sue Coombs at a Merseyside Police press conference. DS Coombs, the senior investigating officer in the case, read a statement on behalf of Elle's family describing her as "special" and "beautiful".
