It was meant to be a joyful time for thousands that flocked to the streets of the Liverpool Parade to celebrate Liverpool Football Clubs Premiership victory parade. Instead, it turned into a sad day for many after a car was driven into the crowds on the streets. It was not a terrorist incident and a man has been arrested on suspicion of driving while unfit on drugs and dangerous driving.
Our friends at Community Watchmen Ministries, are mobilising people to pray in the aftermath of the accident yesterday. We hope that you can join us praying with prayer points they sent us.
