A road was closed last night as a car reportedly hit a wall in a “serious accident”. An eyewitness told the ECHO that the incident took place outside the Lister Fisheries and Pet Centre on Lister Drive in Tuebrook.

A cordon was put in place as Merseyside Police and the North West Ambulance service attended the scene at around 11pm. The cordon had already been lifted when the ECHO visited the road this morning at 8am.

A small section of police tape was still attached to the fence outside the pet shop and what looked like sawdust was on the pavement. Merseyside Police confirmed a serious accident had taken place.
