Two people have been arrested on suspicion of dangerous driving after a hit and run left a jogger in a 'critical' condition in hospital. The man, believed to be in his 50s, was struck by a van in Norris Green, Liverpool, at around 6.30 pm on Sunday.

The cost of fire and rescue services across Merseyside is on the rise. Fire and rescue authority members are recommended to approve an increase of the precept of almost 3%. The increase equates to a rise of £1.76 a year for a Band A household – the rate paid by most council taxpayers across Merseyside.

Merseyside will feature on the popular BBC Two series 'The Hairy Bikers Go West' this week, as David Myers and Si King taste some of the best food offerings in Liverpool and Wirral. As well as Sans Café, the pair visit The Wild Loaf bakery and West Kirby's Seafood Shack.
