There is one thing we keep hearing from families who have lost someone to police suicide: “We don’t want them to be forgotten.” That is exactly why the new online Wall of Remembrance is so important. The feedback from families has been incredibly positive. Each profile is led by the family. Their photographs, memories and their words, remembering the person behind the police uniform. If you have lost a loved one to police suicide, please get in touch privately. We’d be happy to show you what we’ve created and talk you through it, with absolutely no obligation. We will be launching the new platform on Monday 19th October.

APPEAL | Detectives are appealing for information following a stabbing in Liverpool city centre in the early hours of this morning, Sunday 20 September. At around 6.35am, officers were called to Tithebarn Street after three men were found injured. All three victims have been taken to hospital for assessment. Two are in a stable condition and the third sustained minor injuries. CCTV, forensic and witness enquiries continue and cordons are in place on Tithebarn Street, Eberle Street and Temple Lane. It is initially believed that the incident took place outside the G-Bar on Eberle Street. Detective Chief Inspector Lisa McNaughton said: “We understand the concern that such a serious incident will cause in the community. This is why it is so vital that anyone with information comes forward as a matter of urgency. It appears that some form of altercation broke out near to G-Bar, resulting in the three victims sustaining injuries. “The suspected weapon has been recovered and will be forensically examined. We will do all we can to identify the person responsible and support the victims as this investigation progresses. If you saw or captured any part of this incident, let us know and we will take action. “The consequences of this incident could have been even worse so be assured that we will relentlessly pursue the offender. You will see an increased police presence carrying out enquiries so speak to us with any information or concerns.” Anyone with information should contact Merseyside Police social media desk via X or Facebook @MerPolCC. You can also report information via our website: orlo.uk/IUg2d or by calling 101 quoting incident reference 26000771554.
