A grieving family watched on in horror as their much-loved son died in front of them.
Nicola Ellison described the heart-wrenching moment she received a call telling her to get to the hospital as her brother Adam had been stabbed. From a "blood curdling scream" to watching doctors try to resuscitate him, Nicola said it was "the most horrendous thing I've ever seen" as she told of how mum Joyce screamed in pain when doctors said nothing more could be done.
Adam was enjoying a night out with friends when he was stabbed in the neck during an altercation with two men on a scrambler bike at Market Place, Prescot. The 29-year-old, died shortly after 2am, on November 4, 2017.
