Dozens of people have been injured after a car ploughed into crowds of Liverpool supporters during a victory parade to celebrate the club's Premier League title triumph.

Joyous scenes in the city centre turned nightmarish on Monday evening when a vehicle sped into fans packed onto Water Street just after 6pm.

A 53-year-old man has been arrested and 27 people were taken to hospital including a seriously injured child and adult. A further 20 people were treated at the scene.

In an update this morning, Liverpool mayor Steve Rotheram said four people remained 'very ill' in hospital.

Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has branded the scenes as 'appalling', stating that the 'whole country stands with Liverpool'. The incident is not being treated as terror related.
