They fled through some fields at the back. A few phonecalls later( neighbour watch is wonderful) , me and 2 friends noticed them running through the fields behind my workshop and we gave chase , catching one of them and as we pinned the little **** to the ground we were able to direct the gardai ( who were incredibly fast arriving) by phone which way the other 2 scumbags were heading. A large crowd had now gathered, (some armed ) and the 2 scumbags were very relieved the gardai got them first. I have to say the gardai were superb, full credit to them in every way.:cool:

Jesus fucking Christ, any excuse to bash the gardai in a thread praising them. "Sorry OP, even though you were there and I wasn't, I am still more informed than you".
