Four people who were injured in the Liverpool car ramming have been named after a court lifted reporting restrictions.

Paul Doyle, the alleged driver, has been charged with seven offences in connection with the ramming – some of which relate to four adults.


Doyle is accused of the unlawful wounding with intent of Simon Nash, 52, causing grievous bodily harm with intent to Susan Passey, 77, and Christine Seeckts, 66, and the attempted grievous bodily harm of Ethan Gillard, 18.

An order preventing publication of their identities was put in place when Doyle first appeared before magistrates in Liverpool on Friday.

But on Tuesday, Recorder of Liverpool Judge Andrew Menary KC lifted restrictions, ruling that it was in the public interest for the four witnesses to be named.

Doyle has also been charged with another count of wounding with intent, and a second count of attempted GBH, which both relate to children.

Their names cannot legally be reported.

The 53-year-old former Royal Marine faces an additional charge of dangerous driving.
