Long Lane Hand Car Wash cordoned off after a fight between a group of males<\/p>\n

A man is in a serious condition after a fight between a group of men broke out at a car wash in Liverpool. Emergency services were sent to Long Lane Hand Car Wash at around 6.35pm on Sunday (July 5), following a report of a group of men fighting.<\/p>\n

Merseyside Police<\/a> officers arrived to find a man in his 20s with a “puncture wound” to his back. He was taken to hospital where he remains in a serious but stable condition.<\/p>\n

The suspects fled the area before officers arrived, with an investigation now underway to find those involved.<\/p>\n

In a video seen by the ECHO<\/a>, a group of men can be seen fighting at the car wash before they are chased away while muffled shouting can be heard from the men.<\/p>\n

When the ECHO attended the scene, surrounded by various industrial estates, forensic officers had bagged several items from the car wash, including what appeared to be two shovels.<\/p>\n
