A further investigation will be launched into the circumstances that led to a toddler being found injured outside a block of flats in Bootle.
Earlier this week, Merseyside Police were called to attend reports that a two-year-old child had been found injured outside the Whimbrel House flats on St James Drive. The child was rushed to hospital with injuries not believed to be life threatening.
Sefton Council has now confirmed it is liaising with the building owners regarding the shocking incident. A local authority spokesperson said: “Our housing standards team is contacting the building’s owners to investigate the circumstances of this incident.”
