A Liverpool supporter was brutally attacked after a match, leaving him with a serious head injury and raising concerns about safety at games
Liverpool: A dad is lucky to be alive after a brutal attack left him with a serious head injury. Michael Muldoon, a lifelong Liverpool fan, was at Anfield for a match against Manchester City.
After the game, he was walking back to his car when a man punched him. He fell and hit his head on the curb, resulting in a shocking injury.
His daughter, Charlotte, described the moment she got the call from emergency services. She and her mom rushed to the hospital, worried sick about Michael.
Charlotte said it was horrific. Michael was confused and couldn’t explain what happened. He needed stitches and glue to treat his wound, but it hasn’t healed well.
She shared that he has a literal hole in his head, which is just terrifying. To make matters worse, her brother broke his foot while trying to find their dad.
Michael has been a season ticket holder for 30 years and has never faced trouble at games before. It’s heartbreaking for the family, especially since this happened on his home turf.
Charlotte mentioned that Michael is trying to stay positive, but it’s clear he’s shaken. He hasn’t returned to football since the incident, and the family is worried about him going back.
Merseyside Police are investigating the attack. They arrested a 21-year-old man and are looking for anyone who might have seen what happened or has relevant footage.
They’re urging people to come forward with any information to help bring justice for Michael. It’s a tough situation, and the community is rallying to support him.
