On my home from work and 6 riot vans went screaming down Woodstock Road (5.25 pm).

heading where ?

...towards Poulton Road/Gorsey Lane. Might of gone on to B'head...

Popping down that way shortly,will have a nosey!

i live near gorsey , nothing going on here must be jerkinbead

I've just drove thru wallesy and I could not see anything

6 riot vans have just this minute gone screaming past mine down Poulton Road from Gorsey Lane towards Seacome direction...

must be lost . same satnav as me

There have been quite a lot of emergency vehicles screaming in between Birkenhead and Wallasey this afternoon. Could hear them but not see them from where I was.

i just got in from tesco seacombe and was outside tesco chatting for 5 mins or so, nothing came down poulton road that far?

They've been forming up the teams at Wallasey and sending them over to liverpool, probably going through the tunnel.

possibly somethin to do with oxton road bein closed, my fellas a taxi driver and was told it was closed off and armed police attending

The 6 riot vans have just come screaming through the Wallasey tunnel. There is now something going on at Gorsey Lane but think it might be unrelated to the vans maybe just an accident but they have blocked the road off.

6 police transport (Yellow) vans just left Manor Road Police station!!!

There is an ambulance attending a house on Oxton Road (L), the vans turned right and headed straight down Poulton Road, I passed Gorsey Lane lights on foot and nothing too suspect appears to be gonig on.

Sayers Birkenhead has ran out of sausge rolls so they all "screamed" over to Sayers Liscard as they had put too many in the oven on the early shift. Word got out to the other police stations across the wirral.

haha good job there's more than one kfc aswell, otherwise we would be fooked

I'm back.Sorry nothing to report!

Is there a "live" Liverpool site anything like Wiki - where you could see comments/ info about what may or may not be going on in the city?

I ask because someone has suggested going to a club up by the Catholic cathedral tonight

I'm not keen
