Neighbours heard people "fighting" and "arguing" in the street as a gang attacked a man with weapons.
Merseyside Police were called to Fernhill Road in Bootle, just after 8pm on Tuesday, May 23, following reports of an assault. Once officers arrived at the scene it was reported to them a gang traveling in a white van had attacked a man with weapons in the street.
It is understood it was a targeted attack. A police cordon was put in place around the area yesterday while crime scene investigators continued their forensic examinations and witness enquiries.
