Car was Driven by CEO Paul Doyle & hit Liverpool Parade Crowd: serious injuries

[arista]

[6.03pm: The car accelerates rapidly into the crowd, with fans bouncing off its bonnet as it swerves at speed. One is carried on the bonnet a number of yards and more than a dozen are initially trapped underneath. One witness says a baby is injured]

Yes Cherie,
that is terrible

[Beso]

So it didn't sneak in behind an ambulance....not with all that commotion before hand. Yet he still managed to get through the roadblock. With all that commotion before hand.


Torture him some have said..feed him to the baying crowd. Etc etc.

The charges he faces relate to six victims, and two of the charges – wounding with intent and attempted grievous bodily harm – relate to a child.

…just a really, really sad story/incident and now it’s for piecing it all together as to how this could have ever happened…maybe life changing with some of the physical injuries and also life changing on many levels and in many ways for many people ….

[Cherie]

There are alot of unanswered questions here, was the road he was initially driving down open or closed, why was he allowed to follow the ambulance, there appear to be numerous police around who bundled him from his car to safety but none of them appear to have intervened before that, it all happened very quickly but a car on a closed road should have sent red flags surely

[Crimson Dynamo]

Great to see they have lots of bang up-to-date pics of the man....

I don't really understand why everyone is saying he doesn't look like a bloke in his 50's. He does. 53 ain't elderly you'll be happy to hear LT. Things go south at about 60 though :worry:.

[Cherie]

Why would anyone send in the pic of him in the Christmas hat, so bizarre

[Beso]

I can't see him getting a fair trial..the cops already tarrred him as a junkie..they mustn't have had any evidence for that, they just.....well, they must have just said it!!!

Expect LT is comparing it to the Southport attack when the pictures released were all of him as a schoolboy

It sounds to me like the road wasn't closed and that was when the attacks on the car started. He then followed an ambulance through a roadblock into the closed section of the road

I might be wrong though

That is 100%,

Never taking questions

They are my thoughts as well, and I wonder if he followed the ambulance for safety because at this point his rear window was smashed in

Smacks of police failures, I hope he has a good lawyer because I think all of this was caused by panic on both sides

[Zizu]

There was a feeling that he was terrified by some fans who started trying to wreck his car as he drove slowly past and it spooked him into driving recklessly into the crowd BUT the prosecution look to be class it was done with intent ..


He’s an ex marine …

I am not supporting his actions in anyway,but have thought that the guy may have been scared shitless by fans kicking the car and trying to smash the windows,sheer panic may have made him think erratically,those fans probably would have badly injured him or worse.I do recall a story about two soldiers that were pulled out their car and killed by a baying mob.Its just a thought, its very sad what happened and I'm not condoning it,he maybe should have just left his car,IF of course it wasn't done on purpose,if it was he deserves the full force of the law .

The police failed to mention that he was actually dragged from the car and given a few punches b4 the police intervened...you see this in the clip that shows the police standing aimlessly by as the car is set upon once it stops.

At the end of the day though, while the vigilante "justice" shouldn't have happened, that part isn't really relevant to the charges against him... he shouldn't have been there at all... just by being there at all (if he followed an ambulance he blatantly knew he wasn't meant to be driving there) he was driving recklessly whether he was drunk or high or not and regardless of what happened in the aftermath. The charges are more than deserved.

All I'd add is that if they can identify any of the people punching/kicking/attacking the car, ESPECIALLY before it ended up ploughing into more people, all of those people should also be arrested and charged because their actions contributed to the outcome and they share some responsibility.

As do the organisers, IMO, at the very least there should be resignations of those responsible for crowd safety. Mistakes were made no matter how you cut it.

I would add that if the street he was originally driving on was open to cars, that he probably followed the ambulance and was perhaps not aware it was closed off, at the very least there must have been someone at the barrier, and he was driving slowly as people were taking pictures yet no police person ran towards him, we are always told they run towards danger yet no one appears to have even noticed him driving and honking his horn, its pretty much a **** show

Checks time...


Yea TS, all of that is blatantly obvious. Yet the police brought out a timeline of events. They just missed that bit out. I think it's relevant, and it shows the actions he will claim he was fleeing from.

In Court again on 14th of August

I agree with your points tbh.

…it would be good to have an update on some of the victim’s injuries/condition…I think there are still 7 in hospital and including children…although no injuries were life threatening, some were reported as life changing…

Horrible

…there are huge differences with minimum and maximum sentences for the charges so far which will be tried in court…(…there may be other charges added…)…but the severity of injuries in how life changing and the ages of the victims etc will apparently all have a huge bearing on the sentencing…

[MTVN]

I'm not sure if any injuries are life changing? I've only seen reports of them being serious which hopefully means a full recovery is possible

[Ammi]

…yeah I’ve just looked at some of the articles and you’re correct, it does state some as serious as opposed to life changing, which I had thought that I’d read in some reports…I was looking at the vast differences in potential minimum and maximum sentences which could happen with this case and severity of injuries/age of the victims etc would all be a much considered factor…also, the impact on Paul Doyle himself and his remorse and statements from the victims and their families also…that’s why there is no one size fits all with the law and sentencing, isn’t it…so much to consider in specific cases…

Paul Doyle pleads not guilty to 31 charges over Liverpool parade incident…

A man has pleaded not guilty to 31 charges, including dangerous driving and causing grievous bodily harm with intent, after a car was allegedly driven into a crowd of people in Liverpool.

Paul Doyle, 53, was arrested on 29 May after allegedly driving through a crowd of Liverpool football club supporters during the team’s Premier League trophy parade in the city centre on the evening of 26 May.

Doyle was charged with seven offences at the time of his arrest, but was charged with an additional 24 in August after appearing in Liverpool crown court via a video link.

He stands accused of one count of affray, one count of dangerous driving, nine counts of causing grievous bodily harm (GBH) with intent, two counts of wounding with intent, and 18 charges of attempting to cause GBH with intent, with the media now able to name seven-month-old Teddy Eveson as a complainant in the last of the charges.

Doyle, a former Royal Marine and a father of three from the West Derby area of Liverpool, appeared again via video link from HMP Belmarsh, wearing a grey T-shirt and glasses. He spoke only to confirm his name and enter his pleas, shaking his head several times as the 31 charges were read out.

The incident is reported to have occurred after Doyle allegedly followed an ambulance down a road off-limits to cars during the parade. His grey Ford Galaxy allegedly collided with a large number of fans before coming to a stop. Police pushed back people trying to remove him from the car, before arresting him.

The incident left 134 people with injuries and more than 50 requiring hospitalisation, four of whom were children.

In the immediate aftermath of the incident, police released details of Doyle’s ethnicity, a decision that some said could lead to difficulties for forces in the future.

A pre-trial hearing has been set for 27 October, with a provisional trial date set for 25 November, having previously been scheduled for the day before. The trial is expected to last between three and four weeks.
