Liverpool fans ‘staggered’ by traffic control measures in place at victory parade

Several in attendance say they weren't surprised a collision could take place, with access described as a free-for-all'

Football fans who were at Liverpool's Premier League title victory parade, where a car ploughed into pedestrians injuring more than 50 people, have said they were staggered" by the traffic control measures in place before the incident.

A 53-year-old man from the West Derby area of the city was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder, driving while unfit through drugs, and dangerous driving. Merseyside police said detectives had been granted more time to question the man, with an extension until Thursday.
