- Reds celebrated title triumph on May 26
- Scary incident left 134 people injured
- Trial set to take place in November
The charges brought against Paul Doyle include dangerous driving and causing grievous bodily harm with intent. The 53-year-old was arrested on May 29 after ليفربول‘s triumphant squad had celebrated with supporters in the city centre on May 26.
Doyle was charged with seven offences at the time of his arrest, but a further 24 have been added since. The incident in question left 134 people with injuries, with more than 50 – four of which were children – requiring hospital treatment.
Doyle allegedly followed an ambulance down a street that had been closed for Liverpool’s trophy parade. His vehicle was seen on CCTV being surrounded by fans before accelerating and hitting a number of those that were close by.
It is estimated that one million people took to the streets to revel in Liverpool claiming the الدوري الإنجليزي الممتاز crown at the end of the 2024-25 campaign. Stars of that success boarded an open-top bus, with players and staff eager to share in the joy of a loyal fan base.
The alleged actions of Doyle, who is from the West ديربي area of Liverpool, cast a cloud over those celebrations. He delivered his not guilty plea by video link from prison. He remains in custody and is due to stand trial on November 24.
