[dropcap type=”circle”]D[/dropcap]etectives investigating the murder of Blake Brown in the Aigburth district of Liverpool on Monday, 24 October have issued new video footage as a further appeal for information.
Blake was fatally shot at 10.20pm on Southwood Road and a number of males are currently on bail in connection with the investigation.
The footage, released today (Wednesday 25th January) shows a white Range Rover Evoque and two men in the area of Moel Famau View before and after the murder, as well as the same vehicle in convoy with a BMW the day after the murder, en route to being burnt out in the Heswall area.
The Evoque was stolen from an address in West Kirby on Friday, 14 October and was seen displaying false plates before being driven to Liverpool a few days before the murder.
Detective Inspector Richie Jones from the investigation team said: “We are releasing this footage for a number of reasons. Firstly, to appeal to anyone who saw these men in the area of Priory Woods and Southwood Road prior to the murder of Blake around 10.20pm.
“We are also keen to speak with anyone who has any information about the Evoque being set on fire in Heswall, and if anyone knows where it was stored between when it was stolen and when it was driven to Liverpool.
“Any detail, however small, could be a key piece of information, so please get in touch through our dedicated phone number or anonymously to Crimestoppers.”
If anyone has any information about the movements of these vehicles, or in relation to the murder, please call us on 0800 230 0600 or leave information anonymously with Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
