Man, 46, in critical condition after being hit by taxi in LiverpoolCredit: Google maps A man is in a critical condition after being hit by a cab in Liverpool. Police were called to Brownlow Hill, at the junction of Clarence Street, at around 1.25am on Sunday 3 March. The 46-year-old pedestrian suffered life threatening injuries and remains in hospital. The taxi driver, a 52 year-old man from Liverpool, was arrested on suspicion of causing serious injury by careless driving. He remains in police custody. Detective Sergeant Kurt Timpson, lead investigating officer from Merseyside Police Serious Collision Investigation Unit (SCIU), said: “Our thoughts are with the male’s family as they await updates on his condition. "This collision happened at a busy location and despite the time of night I believe it will have been witnessed by members of the public. "I would appeal directly to anyone who saw anything and who has yet to speak with my team to please get in touch. "In addition I would ask local businesses and homeowners with CCTV to check their systems to see if the collision has been captured. "We know the area was busy with traffic and as such I would also ask anyone who was in the area at the time who has dashcam fitted to their vehicles to urgently review it. Any help we receive, no matter how insignificant it may seem, could assist our investigation." www.itv.com/news/granada/2024-03-04/man-in-critical-condition-after-being-hit-by-cab-in-liverpool
