A man in his 20s and a woman in her 50s were found injured in the garden of a house in Huyton, Knowsley, at about 16:25 BST on Wednesday, Merseyside Police said.

A 33-year-old man, from Huyton, who was shot by armed officers, remains in a stable condition in hospital and has been arrested, the force added.
