Hillsborough: Fan injured in stadium disaster dies 32 years later

A Liverpool fan who suffered life-changing injuries in the Hillsborough disaster has died.

Andrew Devine, 55, died on Tuesday, his family said in a statement released by Liverpool FC.

It added: "Our collective devastation is overwhelming but so too is the realisation that we were blessed to have had Andrew with us for 32 years."

Ninety-six other people died due to the crush at the FA Cup semi-final against Nottingham Forest in 1989.

Mr Devine was described by his family as a "much-loved son, brother and uncle" who had been supported by his family and a team of dedicated carers.
