Rescue teams search for aircraft
Search and rescue teams are looking for a light aircraft that is believed to have crashed in Liverpool Bay.
Police received reports that a plane was in trouble two miles off the Wirral coast, just north of Wallasey, at about 1245 BST on Sunday.
Officers believe there were two passengers on board the aircraft at the time of the accident.
An RAF helicopter, lifeboat crews and police helicopters were searching the area for signs of wreckage.
Piper Cherokee
Wirral Beach Patrol, Liverpool lifeboat, Hoylake lifeboat and Hoylake Coastguard Rescue Team are also joining the search.
Peter Shillingwall, operations manager at New Brighton Lifeboat station, said crews were at the scene within five minutes, as they were holding an open day.
"The coastguard alerted me at 1243, saying that an aircraft was down two miles north of Wallasey," he said.
"We saw a pleasure aircraft flying overhead so we were on the scene in four to five minutes."
Liverpool Coastguard say the plane is a Piper PA28 Cherokee light aircraft.
