The city was busy with fans celebrating Liverpool Football Club’s 20th top-flight league title. Video footage shows a car plowing through a crowd of people on the street during the parade.

“This gray people carrier just pulled up from the right and just rammed into all the people at the side of us … It was extremely fast. Initially, we just heard the pop, pop, pop of people just being knocked off the bonnet of a car,” one fan, Harry Rashid, told the U.K.’s PA Media news agency.

U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer called the scene “appalling” in a post on X on Monday.

“My thoughts are with all those injured or affected,” he added. “I want to thank the police and emergency services for their swift and ongoing response to this shocking incident.”
