Shoppers on Chapel Street got the shock of their lives this afternoon after a security van sent out a police alert this afternoon, Thursday 25 January.
The false alarm was accidentally set off and urged passers by to call the police, however nobody took it seriously and left the van until the driver returned to the vehicle.
A video shows shoppers ignoring the alert and going about their business, rather than calling the Police.
An alarm automatically sent a warning call to Merseyside Police but was soon deactivated before officers turned up.
