Continued appeal for witnesses following road traffic collision involving bus and pedestrian

We are today, Monday 10 March, continuing to appeal for witnesses after a collision involving a bus and a pedestrian in Liverpool city centre on Saturday night (8 March).

A report was received just after 11pm that a single decker Arriva bus had been involved in a collision with a 27 year-old man outside the Empire Theatre, on Lime Street.

The pedestrian was taken to hospital with serious injuries. He remains in hospital in a critical condition.

The driver stopped at the scene and is assisting with enquiries.

Roads Policing Inspector Jason Higham said: "We are continuing to appeal for any passengers on the bus or pedestrians in the area who witnessed the collision and have not yet come forward to do so as a matter of urgency.

“We would also like to speak to anyone who thinks they may have captured it on their dashcam or mobile phone.”
