LONDON: A British man wiped away tears Tuesday as his trial began for allegedly driving his car into crowds at Liverpool Football Club’s Premier League victory parade in May, injuring dozens of people. Paul Doyle held his head in his hands as jurors at Liverpool Crown Court in northwest England were sworn in to hear the case against him. Wearing a suit and glasses, the 54-year-old spoke briefly to enter not guilty pleas to four newly-amended counts. He denies 31 charges including for causing grievous bodily harm (GBH) with intent, wounding with intent, affray and dangerous driving.
