Paul Doyle, a 53-year-old man from West Derby, Liverpool, has appeared in court after a car was driven into a crowd during Liverpool FC’s trophy parade earlier this week. The incident took place on Water Street, where thousands of fans had gathered to celebrate the team’s Premier League title win.
Doyle is facing seven serious charges, including two counts of unlawful and malicious wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, two counts of causing grievous bodily harm, two counts of attempted grievous bodily harm, and one count of dangerous driving. The charges involve six people, including two children—one of whom was involved in both a wounding and an attempted grievous bodily harm charge.
At Liverpool Magistrates' Court, Doyle confirmed his identity but did not enter any pleas. The judge has adjourned the hearing to consider reporting restrictions, and Doyle has been remanded in custody for now.
According to police, a total of 79 people were injured in the incident, with the youngest victim being just nine years old and the oldest 78.
