A street was taped off by police this afternoon after a man was reportedly run over by a reversing car.

The incident happened on Moses Street, Toxteth, directly opposite the Tesco Extra on Park Road. Police cordoned off the street as paramedics treated the man at the scene.

A woman, who did not want to be named, said she went over to help the man after seeing people gathered outside Tesco. She said: “He’s stepped in between the bins and a car has reversed over him. I saw everyone in front of Tesco looking. I was sitting with him, he’s conscious. A few people in the street went over to help”

The ECHO understands the man sustained injuries to his arm and leg been this has not been officially confirmed. It is not yet known if any arrests have been made.

Merseyside Police was approached for comment.

Jay Slater: Spanish authorities remain silent on missing teen while online conspiracies reach fever pitch
What was a sprawling operation last week now feels more focused, with a cluster of officers from the Civil Guard telling me they were looking at a particular ravine with a nearby water source. Gesturing to the other side of the uneven terrain, one explained how they needed special equipment to access an area that is difficult to traverse on foot. The changeable conditions we've seen in the Rural de Teno national park over the past week have included not just the high temperatures you'd expect in Tenerife, but also cloud cover, high winds and rain.
