Liverpool’s chief constable says death of girl at home ‘crosses every boundary’ and pledges major response to catch anyone involved
An attempted public murder of a senior gang member caused a nine-year-old girl to be mistakenly shot dead while being shielded by her mother inside her Liverpool home, the Guardian has learned.
Olivia Pratt-Korbel was standing directly behind her mother, Cheryl, who was trying to keep the gunman out. Police said they believe the fleeing criminal saw a “chink of light” as Olivia’s mother opened the door to see what the noise was – before rushing in to escape his assailant.
