A man from Northern Ireland who was struck by a car at the Liverpool Football Club victory parade has said he feels “very lucky” to be alive.

Jack Trotter and his girlfriend Abbie Gallagher, from Newtownards, County Down, were hit by the car as it drove into fans on Water Street, in Liverpool.

It happened at about 18:00 BST on Monday as thousands of Liverpool FC fans gathered in the city centre for the Premier League victory parade.

“The first thought that I got was: ‘Where’s Abbie? I need to find Abbie.’ She could be anywhere at this rate and lucky enough she was screaming my name and I found her,” Mr Trotter told the BBC.
