    Today, brother noticed a young guy hopping a side wall of an elderly couple's home. He drove in the driveway and three of them were trying to break through the back door. 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:

    Fair play. A good news story on AH for a change. No-one got hurt and the scumbags were caught.

    Hard to reconcile this claim from what you've told in your story there. Surely the credit goes to you and your mates. Other than escort them away, sounds like they did bugger all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,431 ✭✭✭Sky King


    OP you need to get onto that elderly couple and explain what you did

    Try get some money out of them, like.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,627 ✭✭✭Lawrence1895


    Some sort of hat-trick I like :cool:

    Shame the Gardai got there first, they won't learn a damn thing and won't be punished in the slightest.

    There. I have reconciled it for you.

    Escorting them back to the station and having to deal with the scumbags back there is not "bugger all".

    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".

    Trying to rob an elderly couple? Brave men indeed.

    Simply making the point that they were responding to a call from a responsible citizen and that the praise should rightfully go to the OP. Chill out there Chief Inspector.

    Definitely wasn't the Newbridge Garda anyway .....

    Welcome to Ireland, c.a. 2013.

    Are you saying that's what actually happened or something?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,101 ✭✭✭Weathering


    It won't be made in to a blockbuster

    So which is it is then? Did they respond to the call or did they do bugger all?

    Yes credit should go to the OP, but not the gardai?

    What's with name calling by the way?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 6,765 ✭✭✭flutered


    this country needs more people like the op and his mate, the usual thing here is to look the other way, a medal should be awarded.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,919 ✭✭✭RosyLily


    First thought reading the thread title- "Ooooh murder!":o

    Must stop watching copious amounts of the Crime & Investigation channel.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 717 ✭✭✭islanderre


    Did this happen in the corofin / turloughmore area???????? noticed a high speed unmarked Garda car speeding through the area about half one this afternoon....
    Well done OP..... nice to see justice......


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,790 ✭✭✭slavetothegrind


    well done op. well done.

    dont be surprised to see the cnuts walk though, but doubt they'll be back your way!

    you did right not to do what we all want to do to such little cnuts!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 663 ✭✭✭space_man


    shame the Gaurds apprehended them so soon.
    about time some of these little knackers got a good beating.
