Oh dear Paddy has relatives in Harrowby road so that could be true

I think I heard it last night. I thought it was kids with fireworks as there was 4 loud bangs, but the times seem to add up.

Things just seem to be getting worse...

Borough Road still blocked off, just been to Arrowe Park, all looks normal, couldnt see any police, or at least no more than usual.

Merseyside Police @MerseyPolice

Regarding last night's shooting in Birkenhead - There have been rumours the victim is Paddy O'Doherty. This is factually INCORRECT


No idea who this guy is, but this is the tweet that has just been posted by MerPol.

i work in st. caths and can confirm that as of now, borough rd is STILL blocked.

there's major rumour of the victim being paddy o'doherty (police might tweet differently to not alarm anyone or make the assailant brag) as he has relatives in the area (cousin i believe)

all busses are coming via derby road, traffic is hell, avoid the area if at all possible. we've also received no word from the police how long forensics will be there.

sod knows how long it'll take my bus to get here after work (155) so might just walk down to birkenhead and get the train home...

will keep you all posted if i hear anything,

update: it WASN'T paddy o'doherty who was shot, but he was at APH A&E visiting whoever it was that was shot.

probably one of his relatives/friends.

i've heard nothing else.

Just trying to get the story straight in my own head, thought it wasn't Paddy himself, thanks for explaining June

Yes without sounding like captain obvious, of course what has happened is tragic but at least the victim is pulling through, lets hope he makes a full recovery and the idiot who shot him is dealt with to the full extent of the law

The more observant of you will notice i also posted this thread in Street news, Jase kindly informed me there was already one running and provided the clicky my first reaction was also OMG, Poor fella etc, hence why i posted a thread about it

ZR your are right sniping comments etc is playground shit, Can do with out it

Is davey the son
Posted By: gypsyjune Re: Police Tape Borough Rd/Harrowby Rd - 19th Apr 2012 8:12pm
Hi Wiggi ,would that make the shooting of his father in law equal ?i don`t understand what you are getting at ? your normally alright
Posted By: Wiggi77 Re: Police Tape Borough Rd/Harrowby Rd - 19th Apr 2012 8:29pm
I'm not getting at anything June, it was a question just wondering if it was the same son?

Oh and no if it was related it wouldn't make it right
Posted By: gypsyjune Re: Police Tape Borough Rd/Harrowby Rd - 19th Apr 2012 8:57pm
Fair enough Wiggi ,but there is a family hoping there dad /brother /son is alright ,i hope he pulls through .I just didn`t think the timing was right to sling sh*t that`s all and worst of it is i know them.There is not many of us that haven`t got a skeleton or 2 in the cupboard i just hope to god some one doesn`t shoot my nan cos of some thing i did in the past (hyperthetically) i mean ,you take care xx
Posted By: Chopper1979 Re: Police Tape Borough Rd/Harrowby Rd - 19th Apr 2012 9:12pm
If you don't mind me asking gypsyjune, was it an actual gun he was shot with or some high power air rifle conversion thingy as if it were a 9mm or the like, the fact someone heard 4 shots as per a post on here, means the victim is so fortunate to be alive.
