An explosion outside Liverpool Women’s Hospital on Remembrance Sunday has
been declared a terror incident by police.
The suspected attacker died when a homemade bomb exploded in a taxi outside
the hospital, while the injured driver named locally as David Perry escaped
before the car caught fire.
According to report, the UK terror threat level has been raised to severe.
Meanwhile, Home Secretary Priti Patel said it had been raised from substantial to
severe, meaning an attack is highly likely, because the explosion in Liverpool
was the second incident in a month.
As at the time of filing this report, four men have been arrested in the city under
the Terrorism Act.
More so, Police have confirmed a controlled explosion was carried out as a
precaution in the Sefton Park area as part of the investigation.
