'Whilst Olivia lay dying, he was picked up by his friends who took him to hospital.'
Olivia Pratt-Korbel, nine, died after being shot in her home in the Dovecot area of Liverpool at around 10pm on Monday, August 22.
She said that while Olivia lay dying, the injured man who forced his way into the house was picked up by his friends and taken to hospital. "The man being chased forced his way into Olivia's house and the offender ran in after him, firing a number of shots with complete disregard for Olivia and her family, who had no connection with the gunman or the man who forced his way in.
The force is now carrying out house-to-house, CCTV and forensic enquiries, while a cordon is in place.
