Scrambler bikes were seen causing havoc in Everton Park just days before the terrifying shooting earlier this week.
Everton Park Friends shared photos of people on scrambler bikes days before a man was shot in the busy park at around 10.30pm on Tuesday, June 21. When the news first broke about the shooting, the group took to Twitter to share previous problems they had been having with scrambler bikes.
Detective Chief Inspector Rachel Wilson said after the shooting: “Our enquiries so far have shown that a red, white and blue motocross bike was being ridden in the Everton Brow area and an electric bike was sighted on Prescot Road at the time of the incident. If you were driving in the Everton Road or Prescot Road areas last night and have dashcam footage then please review it and if you saw either of these bikes then let us know."
