Tributes have poured in after the "senseless" loss of an "amazing young man" in a street shooting this week.
Sam Rimmer, 22, was shot in the chest in Lavrock Bank, Dingle, on the evening of Tuesday, August 16. Merseyside Police say Mr Rimmer was with a group when the gunman opened fire from the back of one of two electric bikes, believed to have been carrying four men in dark clothing.
Witnesses described hearing a series of around five loud bangs, and an anonymous 999 call came in at 11.40pm. Emergency services attended and Mr Rimmer was rushed to the Royal Liverpool Hospital, but despite the best efforts of paramedics he was pronounced dead on arrival.
