Africa-Press – Tanzania. <\/strong><\/span>A British man has been arrested after he ploughed his minivan Monday into a parade of Liverpool soccer fans celebrating their team’s victory in the Premier League Championship.<\/b><\/p>\n

The police said the 53-year-old is believed to be the only one involved in the incident and that it was not being investigated as an act of terrorism.<\/p>\n

Nearly 50 people were injured in the crash, including several children, with ambulance services saying 27 of them were taking to hospital for treatment.<\/p>\n

Liverpool\u2019s mayor on Tuesday said four of the wounded were in a serious condition.<\/p>\n

Officials estimate around one million people were along the 16-kilometre route to watch the Liverpool players\u2019 open-top bus victory parade through the city centre.<\/p>\n

But at about five in the afternoon, as the event was winding down, a minivan drove into the large crowd.<\/p>\n

Police have not released any additional details about the driver or his motivations yet.<\/p>\n

It is also not clear how the man was able to drive at the crowd through a street that was closed to cars.<\/p>\n
