A GUN feared to be the one used to murder Olivia Pratt-Korbel has been found today.
Cops probing the murder of the nine-year-old discovered the handgun and ammunition in a Liverpool graveyard this afternoon.
Tests are underway to confirm the type of gun – and whether it was used in her murder.
Little Olivia was fatally shot in the chest at her home in Dovecot, Liverpool, on August 22.
Detectives have previously confirmed that a .38 revolver was the weapon that killed Olivia.
A second gun that was also fired – a Glock-type self-loading 9mm pistol – had been used in two previous attacks.
