    I heard it alright, both the car and the helicopter. It's a regular occurrence around here. And yes I've also noticed the helicopter around a lot these nights.

    seen it myself, seen 5 squad cars, 2 marked, 3 unmarked going up the road between ongar towards beechfield, police helicopter too on the scene.

    Police helicopter seems to be a regular visitor out this way, particularly on a sun night, few weeks ago it was hoovering over beechfield, makes u wonder whats going on out this way...

    Dublin 15 is teeming with scumbags - that's the problem - I'm sorry to say.

    I seen the exact same at 11.30 - I was out walking and they drove right by me - it was quite scary - the roads were like glass and the stolen car was doing about 80KPH
