We can confirm that one of the people who sadly died following a fatal road traffic collision on the East Prescot Road in the early hours of Monday, 26 April has been named as 33-year-old James McEvoy from Liverpool.

His family have issued following tribute:

“James lived his life a happy man. He always walked with a smile on his face and would actively encourage the smiles of others. James holds a very special place in our hearts and will do for eternity. He is a dad, a son, a brother, a grandson, an uncle, a cousin and a nephew; But most importantly an everlasting friend. The news of his passing is deeply distressing and full of sadness for our family; April 26th 2021 will undoubtedly be engraved in our minds for years and years to come. However, we collectively thank members of the public, friends of the family and close friends of James for their unmatched support during our grief; we especially thank the emergency services and the brave bystanders for their devoted and courageous efforts in attempting with best interests to give James the best chance. 

“Unfortunately, this time it was not meant to be, but it is people like those who aided James in his time of need that give us as a society hope. The efforts of strangers puts the Liverpool culture into perspective and we truly thank you with all our hearts. James’s spirit and charisma will forever live within the hearts and minds of everyone who had the pleasure to know him.

“From the family we love you James and will miss you with every inch of our love. We will miss and love you forever our Jayjay xx”
