LONDON (AP) — The man accused of ramming his car into a parade of Liverpool soccer fans in May as the team was celebrating its Premier League triumph pleaded not guilty Thursday to the 31 charges that he’s facing.
Paul Doyle, 53, is facing 18 counts of attempting to cause grievous bodily harm with intent, nine of causing grievous bodily harm with intent, two of wounding with intent, one of dangerous driving and one of affray.
Doyle appeared generally composed when hearing the charges while appearing by videoconference from prison for the Liverpool Crown Court plea hearing.
The allegations against Doyle relate to 29 victims between the ages of six months and 77 years, who were caught up in the incident in the city center on May 26.
Fans had been celebrating Liverpool’s record-tying 20th title when Doyle allegedly drove down a street full of fans. Police said they believed Doyle got through a roadblock by following an ambulance that was trying to reach a possible heart attack victim.
Doyle’s trial at Liverpool Crown Court is set to commence on Nov. 25.
