People woke up to find a police cordon in place around their homes this morning, with some residents unable to get to work after suspected gun fired.
A large police cordon was put in place at Market Place in Prescot on Thursday, May 25, stretching to parts of Kemble Street and Sewell Street. Several police vehicles were seen at each end of the cordon and motorists and pedestrians were being diverted.
Many people said they were confused when they woke up to find the cordon in place. Residents were unable to get to work within the cordon and others said they were "running late" due to having to walk around.
