Street falls silent after schoolboy's sudden death

A woman living close to the scene where a schoolboy died after being hit by a car has said the area has "never been so quiet" in the aftermath.

Emergency services attended Abingdon Road, Walton after a 10-year-old boy was hit by a Ford Puma at around 4.30pm on Thursday (April 20). People living on the road rushed to help before the boy was taken to hospital, where he died on Friday morning (April 21).

Following his death, tributes have been left at a tree near to where the incident occurred. Flowers, cards and a Liverpool FC scarf have been left at the tree, along with a bottle of hydration drink Body Fuel.
