Merseyside Police say the 36-year-old suspect is also being detained in connection with two attempted murders.

The suspect is from the Huyton area of Liverpool.

He was arrested during an operation involving armed police last night.

Olivia was shot dead after a gunman followed another man he'd been chasing into the child's home on Monday night.

Her family have said Olivia was "adored by everyone who knew her".
