The two-year-old was bitten on the face whilst he was sleeping in his bed
A mum has described the moment she walked in on a scene 'from a horror movie' as she found her two-year-old being attacked by a feral rat.
"I fell to my knees in shock, I had no idea what had happened until I saw the rat run past me. My four-year-old saw it all with me and has been having nightmares ever since." Since the horrendous attack, the mum and her kids have moved in with family and are now looking for a new place to live. Their home in Walton was clean and tidy on the inside but rat issues in the area and the poor quality of housing has led to problems.
Mr Carden's office escalated the case to Liverpool City Council for an urgent pest control visit and the MP met with the family earlier this week.
