A man who was targeted by a gunman in a shooting that left Olivia Pratt-Korbel dead has been arrested and will be questioned about her murder.
The nine-year-old was shot as her mother struggled with two men, one armed with a gun, at the door of her Liverpool home on Monday night.
The intended victim of the shooting has been named as 35-year-old Joseph Nee.
Nee, who was also shot but is a stable condition, has been detained in hospital on a prison recall.
The force said earlier that officers had been given the same name by two different sourcesin the hunt for the gunman.
Merseyside Police said both men had no links to Olivia’s family.
