‘Liverpool running man’ David Francis killed in hit-and-run after being struck by stolen Audi
"When something so tragic happens so close to home. It hits hard...My thoughts go out to his family and friends.Another man wrote: "Whenever we’d be out in the car I’d always be looking out for him saying 'there he is kids - The Litherland Running Man'.
"The kids knew him as LRM too. He was a machine, he ran effortlessly, he just ran for the love of running."I don’t think he actually knew how locally famous he was.Detective Inspector Colin Rennison previously said: "We are in the very early stages of establishing the circumstances of this incident."We will also be checking CCTV and smart doorbell footage from the area in a bid to identify the male who was driving the vehicle.
"We are interested in hearing from anyone who may have seen a dark-coloured Audi S8 being driven in the area before the collision occurred. "Any information you have, however small you may think it is, could prove to be vital to our enquiries.
