Police want help tracing five in connection with a spate of recent shootings in Liverpool.
The rise in gun crime in the recent weeks has seen incidents across the city region in areas including Speke, Belle Vale, Fazakerley, Kirkby and Seaforth.
They also include the murder of Yusuf Sonko in Toxteth earlier this month. Crimestoppers are appealing for information about five people that police are keen to speak with.



James Hogan, 33, from the Everton area, is believed holds valuable information of a firearms incident in Anfield.
Vincent McNamee, 49, is believed to hold information in regards to another firearms incident in north Liverpool.
Bootle resident Daniel Lewis, 21, is wanted by Merseyside Police in connection to a shooting in the area.

Anthony Junior Rowson, 25, is wanted for questioning about a firearms incident in Kirkby.
Information is also being sought on the whereabouts of Daniel Gallagher, 25, whose last known address was in Speke and has links to the Tuebrook area.
Crimestoppers provide a 100% confidential phone line and online forms and are urging anyone with information to reach out.
Gary Murray, Crimestoppers Regional manager for Merseyside, said: “We know that gun crime can be scary, but the purpose of this appeal is not to alarm .
“Contacting Crimestoppers is a way of helping to keep your community safe.
“Our charity takes information anonymously, so you will never have to give any of your own details.
“We have fully trained staff ready to take your information and help remove the burden of what you know, without judgement.
“Please, help us to help you. Pick up the phone and dial 0800 555 111, or visit Crimestoppers-uk.org where you can provide your information online – again, completely anonymously.”
