Reports about the Southport incident say a taxi driver, identified in one account as Gary Poland, dropped the suspect before an attack at The Hart Space. Multiple details in the available text describe his actions after the event began. The account claims Poland left the scene and that he watched children run while he heard what is described as intense screams. It also alleges he told people he had used public donations to “pay for new car,” with one figure cited of about £5,000 raised through donations. The same report depicts Poland as having fled while the incident unfolded. The provided sources do not include information from police or court records within this excerpt, and they do not specify whether any charges have been filed or outcomes of any investigations. Overall, the combined material focuses on allegations regarding the taxi driver’s role in the suspect’s arrival, his departure during the attack, and the use of public fundraising mentioned by the outlet.
