Liverpool city centre was awash with red as fans converged to celebrate the team's Premier League triumph on May 26.

But, the joyous scenes quickly turned to terror when a car drove into the crowd on Water Street as the parade was drawing to a close. A 53 year old man, described by Merseyside Police as 'white British', was apprehended at the scene.

Two fans who survived the 2017 Manchester Arena bombing shared their experiences from the scene on Monday, reports the Manchester Evening News. The attack on May 22, 2017, following an Ariana Grande concert, claimed the lives of twenty-two people and injured more than 1,000.

One fan, named Frankie, who survived the bombing eight years ago, was struck by the car and knocked to the ground. "I don't want to go out again," the 24 year old told MailOnline.

The side of the car hit me and I fell to the ground. It's all a blur.

I've got cuts and bruises and I'll be fine but there are others who have suffered more severe injuries. Robby Potter, from Wirral, was severely injured by shrapnel which penetrated his heart during the Arena bombing. He was in Liverpool on Monday and told MailOnline: "I was 10 seconds ahead. I'm shaking.

The side of the car went into me and I fell to the ground. It's all a blur. I've got cuts and bruises and I'll be fine but there's loads who have got more severe injuries."See more: Mum-of-two describes moment car 'ploughed into crowd' at Liverpool FC parade

The North West Ambulance Service confirmed that 27 people were taken to hospital for medical attention, with four children among them. Tragically, the collisions resulted in severe injuries for two persons; one of them a young child.

Several were attended to at the scene for less severe injuries and others opted to proceed to the hospital themselves after the Monday night horror. A woman recounted her narrow escape during the harrowing events in Liverpool on Monday evening.

The woman, named as Chelsea told BBC Radio 5 Live: "We heard beeping and screaming and as we looked up the car was coming directly for us and for everybody else and we just jumped, I grabbed my friend to jump out the way and she grabbed her daughter, and it just skimmed us."

The terror was palpable in her voice as she narrated the velocity of the vehicle: "It must've been going about 30mph and then we were just in shock that we just nearly got run over but we didn't really know the gravity of it at that point and we were just in shock, then we saw everybody chasing the car afterwards with all the windows smashed.

She continued, detailing the immediate aftermath: "All of a sudden you just saw people lying on the floor and several police officers running towards the scene."

Steve Rotherham, the Mayor of Liverpool City Region, shared that there are four victims still in a very serious condition in hospital following Monday's incident.

Speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live on Tuesday, he said: "The actual incident in Water Street will live with those people for all the wrong reasons, and that's where we have to really focus our minds.

"There are still four people who are very, very ill in hospital and we are hoping of course that they pull through very, very quickly."
