Dad 'thought he lost everything' after baby in pram dragged 15ft by Liverpool parade car
Daniel Eveson recalls the moment his partner and baby boy were dragged 15ft by the car during the Liverpool victory parade. A father whose five-month-old baby and partner were dragged 15ft, when a car ploughed into a Liverpool parade, says he "thought he had lost everything". Daniel Eveson, 36, recounts how one of the "best day of in his life" turned into the worst after seeing his partner, Sheree, and baby, Teddy, hit by a car during the victory parade on Bank Holiday Monday. The family, who are lifelong Reds fans, had travelled from Telford, Shropshire, to enjoy the celebrations but ended up being caught up in the terrifying scenes that unfolded on Water Street shortly after the club bus had passed by. Daniel said he thought a fight had broken out but it was actually car ploughing through the crowd. He then watched as his partner and son, who was in his pram, were dragged away from him. "The car stopped and he pulled into the middle of the road," Daniel said. "A paramedic was with her [Sheree] straight away, but that's when I asked her 'Where's Ted?'. She didn't know. "I could see his pram on the floor. I saw his face crying and I knew he was OK because there wasn't a mark on him. I don't know how, but it's a blessing from above." Teddy was assessed at Alder Hey Children's Hospital and discharged, but Sheree suffered cuts to her legs and deep muscle tissue damage, after she was run over by the car, and is still recovering in Aintree Hospital. "The tyre had gone over her leg and continued to drag her down the road," Daniel said. "It was the worst moment of my life. I wish it was me in that hospital bed." A total of 79 people were injured in the incident. Seven of those remain in hospital in a stable condition, a spokesperson from Merseyside Police confirmed on Wednesday, 28 May. "At that moment I thought my life was over. I thought I'm dead, my partner is dead and my boy is dead," Daniel added. Police believe the car which struck pedestrians was able to tailgate an ambulance crew attending to someone suspected of suffering a heart attack after a road block was temporarily lifted. Daniel believes there are a "lot of unanswered questions" and add that they police "could have stopped the driver" by "pulling him out of the car as soon as they thought there was any threat. They should've got him out of there." He added: "Those words 'You'll Never Walk Alone' mean a lot more to me now. I'll still go to the games but whenever I hear that famous song it will just mean a whole lot more. "Anyone who knows Liverpool knows its much more than a club - it's a family." A man, 53, from West Derby, Liverpool, believed to be the driver of the car, was arrested at the scene on suspicion of attempted murder, dangerous driving offences and driving while unfit through drugs. Officers have been given extra time to question the suspect, who police have described as a white British man. Merseyside Police Assistant Chief Constable Jenny Sims said: 'This was a fast-moving and unprecedented incident which required the skill and experience of officers to quickly establish what had happened and assist injured members of the public. 'The officers detained and arrested a male within a matter of minutes and ensured he could be taken into custody. 'Our officers deal with violence and challenging situations on a daily basis. They go to work each day knowing that they might have to step into a situation that most people would run away from. 'On this occasion they bravely ran towards danger in order to protect the public, putting their own lives and personal safety on the line." fundraising campaign set up for those affected has raised more than £20,000, including a £10,000 donation from the Jamie Carragher 23 Foundation, the former Liverpool player's charity.

‘Need one' parents say as they race to local supermarket to buy £30 toddler essential that's slashed to less than £12
THERE'S nothing worse than trying to toilet train a toddler when you're out and they suddenly declare 'I need a wee!'. But a bargain buy can help diffuse such a stressful situation, as it means you have a loo to hand 24/7. 3 Parents are racing to Asda after spotting the £29.99 My Carry Potty on sale for just £11.98 Credit: ExtremeCouponingAndBargainsUK 3 The carry potty is a vital purchase for any parent trying to potty train Credit: ExtremeCouponingAndBargainsUK 3 It also comes in a cute Finding Nemo design Credit: ExtremeCouponingAndBargainsUK It's the My Carry Potty, which usually retails for around £30, and claims to be lightweight, leakproof, and odour-free. So it's no wonder that parents are racing to Asda, after spotting the essential purchase for just £11.98. And chuffed shoppers took to the "£11.98 carry potty, Asda!" one wrote alongside a snap of the reduced potties on the shelves. Read more Parenting stories "They are usually £28-30 everywhere!" In fact, on the My Carry Potty website, the exact same penguin design is on sale for £29.99. There's also a Finding Nemo option, which has also been reduced to £11.98. And people were quick to take to the comments section to weigh in on the find, with one writing: "Need to get one of them while they are so cheap for when we go away!" Most read in Fabulous "That's good isn't it, they love Nemo too," another added. "A little early but a bargain to put away for when he's ready," a third commented. I potty trained my toddler in just 72 hours - it's so easy with my 3P rule, anyone can do it While someone else wrote: "Our best buy when hallie was toilet training. "Still comes in handy now on long journeys." "I paid £30 each for my twins' ones!" another exclaimed. "This is such a bargain!!!" someone else wrote. "Paid £24 for mine on sale! Couldn't be without it though." "They're so good. My twins use them for days out," another added. NHS potty training timeline THE NHS says most children are potty trained between two and two-and-a-half, saying: "Remember, you cannot force your child to use a potty. "If they're not ready, you will not be able to make them use it. "Most parents start thinking about potty training when their child is between 2 and 2 and a half, but there's no perfect time." By age 1, most babies have stopped doing poos at night By age 2, some children will be dry during the day, but this is still quite early By age 3, 9 out of 10 children are dry most days – even then, all children have the odd accident, especially when they're excited, upset or absorbed in something else By age 4, most children are reliably dry during the day "I keep one in the car all the time for them." "These are amazing for potty training," someone else said. "Brought one for £23 a week ago, returned it & brought one today for £11," another laughed. "Getting prepared for the potty training to come!" Sheree was another lucky mum who managed to pick up one of the reduced potties, and also took to the Facebook group to share it with other parents. "My Carry Potty, £11.98 in Asda at Lowestoft today," she wrote. "Not sure if it's this price everywhere but very good buy!"
