Liverpool crash suspect a 'fantastic' father-of-three

The man arrested at the scene is reportedly a married businessman who has been described as a “nice family man” by neighbours who were left in disbelief at the devastation that unfolded on Monday, according to The Mirror.

Merseyside Police have been given extended powers to keep the 53-year-old man from the West Derby area of the city in custody, after he was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder and drug driving.

The incident occurred during Liverpool FC’s celebration after winning the Premier League, with a Ford Galaxy car thought to have tailgated an ambulance through the cordons and then driven into the crowds.
