Father-of-three charged over Liverpool parade crash

Following the collision that caused 79 injuries during the Liverpool parade, a father-of-three and former Royal Marine has been charged.

According to Merseyside Police, Paul Doyle, 53, from West Derby’s Burghill Road, was detained on Monday when a car struck Liverpool fans during a celebration of their Premier League victory.

At 18:00 BST, a nine-year-old was seriously hurt when the vehicle Mr. Doyle is accused of driving crashed into supporters on Water Street.

Seven people are still in the hospital, according to Merseyside Police’s Assistant Chief Constable Jenny Sims, at a press conference following the incident.

On Friday, Mr. Doyle will show up at Liverpool Magistrates’ Court.

The suspect’s neighbors have expressed shock and disbelief to the BBC, who have spoken with him.

In the hours immediately following the collision, they claimed, Burghill Road was rife with police.

Detectives were “reviewing a huge volume” of mobile phone and CCTV footage, according to Assistant Chief Constable Jenny Sims.

This included witness statements, as well as footage from smartphones, mobile devices, businesses, and dashcams, according to Sarah Hammond, chief prosecutor for the Mersey-Cheshire region of the Crown Prosecution Service.

She stated that as the investigation progresses, the allegations would be kept under wraps.

There are seven offences in Mr. Doyle’s case that can be broken down into four categories.

The first charge, which is related to an alleged offence committed against a child, includes two counts of wounding with the intention to grieve bodily harm (GBH).

The second charge is one of grievous bodily harm, with the intention to inflict grievous bodily harm.

It has to do with the type of injury the Sentencing Council claims to have caused.

GBH doesn’t demand that a person has suffered an open wound. The victim’s skin must have been broken in order to wrestle.

One of the alleged crimes, which Mr. Doyle also faces, involves a child, and is related to two other charges, one of which is alleged to be against him.

Driving is dangerous in the end.

Police determined that the victims of the incident were between ages 9 and 78.

Detectives were “working tirelessly, with diligence and professionalism, to find the answer to all of those questions,” according to Assistant Chief Constable Sims, who was aware that many people had questions about the incident.
