A shooting at a pub on Christmas Eve in which a woman was killed and a number of other people injured has been described as "heartbreaking". Merseyside Police said officers were called to the Lighthouse in Wallasey Village at around 11.50pm on Saturday following reports of gunshots.
The force said a young woman was taken to hospital with a gunshot injury and was pronounced dead. Three men were taken to hospital with gunshot wounds and a number of other people were also injured, police said.
A neighbour who heard shots said she assumed they were celebratory Christmas fireworks. Jenny Hough, 77, told the PA news agency: "I heard the shots... I thought it was a firework actually, because it was nearly midnight.
"I just thought it was people celebrating midnight on Christmas Day." On waking to the news of a fatality and multiple injuries, Ms Hough said: "I couldn't believe it. When I looked outside I thought 'Oh crikey'. It's a complete shock.
"My sister's garden had been broken into. We suspect it was people trying to get out of the pub and trying to climb over the wall and into her garden to get out." Ms Hough said she had heard the pub had been "so crowded" that evening.
A spokesman for the Lighthouse pub said the shooting was "a tragedy beyond any words". In a statement, they said: "All our thoughts are with the friends and family of our customers and in particular our hearts go out to the family of our customer who has lost her life."
Wallasey MP Dame Angela Eagle said the incident was "heartbreaking" and appealed for anyone with information to contact police. She tweeted: "This is heartbreaking news - My thoughts are with the family of the woman who has died & those who are injured. Anyone with any information please tell
