Two motorists have denied causing the death of a pedestrian by driving dangerously on a Merseyside road.
Paul Long and Kieran Platt, who both entered pleas at Liverpool crown court on Monday, were driving separate vehicles along Conway Street in Birkenhead last year when Aso Azizi was struck and suffered fatal injuries.
Long, 63, of Merlin Road in Birkenhead, pleaded not guilty to causing the death by driving a Ford Mondeo dangerously and Platt, 21, of Bramblewood Close in Prenton, denied driving a Renault Megane dangerously and causing death.
The incident happened on January 31 last year.
Both men were further remanded on bail by the Recorder of Liverpool, Judge Clement Goldstone QC, and will now face a trial that is set to start on June 6.
