Paul Doyle injured 134 people by driving his Ford Galaxy into Liverpool football fans during a victory parade on 26 May.

An ex-soldier, Daniel Barr, bravely intervened by climbing into the vehicle and putting it into park, bringing Doyle's two-minute rampage to an end.

The court heard Doyle, consumed by anger, shouted "f****** hell, move" as he ploughed into the crowds, injuring victims ranging from a six-month-old baby to a 77-year-old.

CCTV footage of the incident caused tears and gasps in the public gallery, with Doyle himself breaking down in tears as it was played.

Doyle initially denied 31 charges but later admitted all counts on the second day of his trial, sobbing uncontrollably in the dock.
