Appeal for information on sixth anniversary of murder of Aaron Lewis

Next of Kin: Gary Barker

We are today, Wednesday 1st February, continuing to appeal for information on the sixth anniversary of the death of a 26 year-old man in Wavertree.

At around 7pm on Wednesday 1st February 2017, police were called to Grosvenor Road, following reports that a man had been shot outside Anna Jung’s chip shop.

When officers arrived at the scene they found the victim, Aaron Lewis, suffering from serious gunshot wounds.

He was taken to Aintree Hospital where he was sadly pronounced dead a short while later.

Arrests have previously been made in connection with Aaron’s murder but nobody has been charged.

Detective Inspector David Jones said: “It is now six years since Aaron was murdered, and his family are still unable to find closure and bring those responsible for his murder to justice.

“While six years is a long time to pass, a murder investigation is never closed. I would urge people in the community for their help with the investigation and that it is not too late to come forward with any information you may have, no matter how small.

“If you feel afraid to speak to us directly then give your information anonymously to Crimestoppers.

“Merseyside Police remains committed to keeping our communities safe and targeting gun and serious crime. There is no place in our city for firearms or those who use them to cause fear in our communities but we need the public to help us in our fight to get guns off our streets.

“I would ask anyone who has any information which could assist with this investigation to contact us.”Anyone who has any information which could help detectives with their enquiries is asked to DM @MerPolCC, or contact the @CrimestoppersUK line anonymously on 0800 555 111.
