Emergency crews were scrambled to the  Wharton Recreation Ground at 6pm after Logan was injured.

Sadly, the Liverpool fan – nicknamed Bear by his family – was pronounced dead at the scene.

Cheshire Police confirmed a 13-year-old boy has now been arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving.

The teen was later released under investigation.

Logan’s family have since released a heartbroken tribute to their “blue-eyed boy”.

It read: “Logan was a much-loved son, brother, grandson, great grandson, cousin and friend to many.

“He had an infectious personality and a beautiful smile. He made every day worth living.

“Everyone wanted to be where Logan was. He was a little boy who was so full of life and wanted to make everyone laugh.  

Logan was everyone’s therapy person, their calm and he will be missed more than we can ever put into words.

“We are taking comfort from the words of support we have received whilst we come to terms with the untimely loss of our blue eyed boy.”

A Liverpool jersey and balloons were also left at the park as tributes from locals and family members began pilling up.

And a fundraiser has been set up for the tragic youth with members of the local community donating in Logan’s memory.

Logan’s dad, Rob Carter, had previously told other parents to “hold your kids close and tell them every day how much you love them.”

The grieving father took to social media yesterday to pay tribute to his son in a string of touching posts.
