Although extensive work is going on from our dedicated teams across Merseyside Police and a great deal of intelligence has come in, I would still ask that anyone who has information and has yet to come forward, does so.“If they don’t want to speak to police directly then please get in touch with Crimestoppers where information can be given in confidence.”Ms Edwards is not believed to have been the intended target of the attack, in which four men were also hurt.
