Fire crews at the spot said they removed three adults and a child who were trapped under a vehicle. 27 people were taken to the hospital, and 20 were treated at the scene, according to the North West ambulance service. 

No Terror Angle 

Merseyside Police’s Assistant Chief Constable Jenny Sims said that the incident was not being treated as terrorism. The local police said they reported the incident after 6 pm local time "following reports a car has been in collision with a number of pedestrians" in the city centre. 

The incident took place as the city was filled with football fans attending an open-top bus parade to celebrate Liverpool Football Club's 20th top-flight league title. 

Prime Minister Keir Starmer dubbed the scenes at Liverpool as "appalling" and sent his thoughts for all those injured or affected in a post on X. 

He thanked the police and emergency services for their "swift and ongoing response to this shocking incident." 

"I’m being kept updated on developments and ask that we give the police the space they need to investigate," he said in the post.
