A teenager injured in the scrambler bike crash that killed James Malins has now been discharged from hospital.
The ECHO has learned James, 18, was driving the bike when it collided with a Volkswagen Tiguan in Allerton on December 23.
The pillion passenger, 18, suffered serious injuries in the incident, which happened at around 8.40pm, and was taken to hospital.
Police said he was discharged on Christmas Day and has not been arrested on suspicion of any offences in relation to the crash.
The car contained a young family, including two children, aged nine and 11, who fortunately did not sustain any serious injuries.
Merseyside Police said the stolen motorbike is thought to have been travelling in tandem along Booker Avenue with another scrambler.
They said it is believed neither of the scrambler bikes had their lights on at the time of the crash, close to West Allerton train station.
A police spokesman said: "Witnesses have reported that neither of the bikes had any lights on.
"The second bike stopped initially and then made off towards Mather Avenue."
Floral tributes to James, from Belle Vale, who was nicknamed "Fish Head", were left at the scene of the collision the following day.
Messages were scrawled on a plastic container propped up on the pavement, which read, "Long live Jay!" and "One in a million!"
One longer tribute, written on paper, said: "RIP my brother, love you so much, lad, can't believe you're gone, lad.
"Best kid about, going to miss you like mad, love from your brother buddy."
Others described the 18-year-old as "one wheel Fish" - an apparent reference to his style of scrambler bike riding.
Another message read: "To my brother, Fish Head.
"I love you brother, gona{sic} miss smoking your gram Polly ones giving you sh** for it, ha ha, love you bro, will never forget you, love Cody x."
Heart-shaped red balloons were also tied to nearby railings on the hill where the train station is located.
Some friends urged "Fish" to "save a seat in paradise" and "look after the boys."
Another wrote: "RIP Fish Head, brother gone too young."
Police carried out house-to-house enquiries in the wake of the crash and were also said to be looking for CCTV footage.
Chief Inspector Kevin Chatterton said: "Our enquiries into this incident are at an early stage and we are keen to speak to anyone who witnessed the collision, or saw the two scrambler bikes prior to the collision."
Anyone with information can direct message @MerpolCC, or call 101, or Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, quoting reference number 860 of 23 December.
