FATHER Article continues below Doyle is said to have been married to his wife for 20 years and is a father of three teenage sons. The family is reported to live in a £300,000 four-bedroom
detached home on an estate. Photos on social media depict the family enjoying various holidays, including trips to Disneyland, Florida, Dubai and beach getaways. His online accounts show he

climbing Mount Kilimanjaro. BUSINESS OWNER AND EX-ROYAL MARINE It remains unclear exactly what Doyle does for work, but he is said to have had various management roles as a network security
consultant, including one at an NHS Trust. Company records, seen by Mail Online, reveal that he formerly ran several businesses, and several dissolved retail companies are listed under his
name on Companies House. His LinkedIn page indicates that he is a former Royal Marine Commando and is now believed to work in cybersecurity. WHAT ELSE DO WE KNOW ABOUT HIM? Following news of
his arrest and identity, locals have since spoken out and described Doyle as a "nice guy" and a "family man". Stunned residents in the quiet cul-de-sac where the alleged
driver lives with his three young sons and wife told the Mirror: "It just doesn't make sense." The neighbour continued: “It seems completely out of character. They are such a
nice family, the boys are really nice and well-behaved. [He] is a fantastic guy. He came over to help us when our alarm went off once, and then did the same for our immediate neighbours
too. "It doesn’t feel right. They are lovely. The whole thing is so sad - for his wife and children and also for the people who were injured.” WHAT ARE HIS CHARGES? Doyle has been
charged with two counts of wounding with intent, two counts of causing grievous bodily harm with intent, two counts of attempted grievous bodily harm with intent and one count of dangerous
driving. Merseyside Police assistant chief constable Jenny Sims said: “Paul Desmond Sanders Doyle, 53 years, of West Derby, has this afternoon been charged with two counts of unlawful and
malicious wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, two counts of causing unlawful and malicious grievous bodily harm with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, two counts of
attempted, unlawful and malicious grievous bodily harm with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, all contrary to Section 18 of the Offences Against The Person Act 1861. “He has also been
charged with one count of dangerous driving, contrary to section two of the Road Traffic Act 1988.” Ms Sims called for people not to speculate online said that there were now seven people
still in hospital. “Now that Paul Doyle has been charged, we ask that the judicial process be allowed to continue without any speculation online or anywhere else that could impede the
pursuit of justice for all of those affected," she told the press conference. “A total of 79 people were injured. We continue to be in contact with our officers and staff, and seven
people remain in hospital receiving the expert care of our NHS colleagues. I hope that all of those who are injured, all witnessed in this terrible incident, are able given time to heal and
recover. Article continues below “This continues to be a large and complex investigation, and detectives are reviewing a huge volume of CCTV and mobile phone footage submitted by the public
