On May 26, 2025, a car drove into a crowd of Liverpool fans during the Premier League victory parade on Water Street, injuring around 50 people, including serious injuries to two individuals, one of whom is a child. The 53-year-old driver, a local man, was arrested shortly after the incident, which is not being treated as a terrorist attack. Emergency services responded promptly, treating many on-site while others were taken to four local hospitals, with no fatalities reported but multiple injuries among children and adults.
