Gary Poland, who did not phone police until 50 minutes after the attack, said he feared a gunman was at large and that he would be a target.

The inquiry at Liverpool town hall heard Poland, a driver for One Call Taxis, had driven Axel Rudakubana from his family home in Banks, Lancashire, to a Taylor Swift-themed dance class in Hart Street, Southport on 29 July 2024, where Rudakubana proceeded to kill six-year-old Bebe King, seven-year-old Elsie Dot Stancombe and nine-year-old Alice da Silva Aguiar, and injure a further 10 people before being arrested.
