    Armed checkpoints are often set up to look for/stop known thieves and people ijvolved in drugs whatever! I know in wexford they set a unit up for a while purely to conduct armed checkpoints to cut down on burglaries

    Usually only see them when there's been a murder or bank/post office robbery these days. I didn't hear anything about it. Strange. It's not a main road where you'd usually see armed checkpoints.
