22 Kids & Counting star Sue Radford has shared an update after revealing her children were at the Liverpool parade when a car smashed into the crowd.
At least 47 people have been left injured following the terrifying incident on Bank Holiday Monday (May 26) evening.
It is believed a driver ploughed into football fans in a packed road in the city centre as Liverpool FC’s stars celebrated their Premier League win with their trophy along a 10-mile route.

Footage shared on social media appeared to show members of the crowd attempting to remove the driver from the car. Clips also appeared to show the car door closed before the vehicle accelerated and ran into pedestrians on both sides of a crowded Water Street.
Videos online also appeared to show onlookers chase after the car, as some kicked at it and aimed for the back windscreen.
27 people are believed to have been hospitalised, including four children. One child was reportedly trapped under the car with three adults when firefighters arrived to save them.
A 53-year-old white British man from the Liverpool area has been arrested. Police have indicated the suspect was the driver of the car.
However, police are not treating the horror ramming as terrorism. Additionally, members of the public have been urged “not to speculate on the circumstances” of the incident.
