Garda at Westpoint / Blanch Shopping Centre

Kur4mA

Anyone know what is going on in and around the shopping centre? The Garda helicopter was here for more than 20 minutes hovering over the building I work in, and we had them running around our car park and the car park next door searching under cars and in all of the bushes.

**EDIT**

Helicopter is gone now but still the odd siren going off in the area.

Was just going to post the same question. There was an unmarked car on the road outside the car park, a van at the car park entrance and a marked car driving up and down. There were also Gardaí walking around with gloves.

I seen a guy being chased into the car park beside the leisureplex by three security guards.

He seemed to disappear, a lot of guards passed me on my way up to the centre.

Same guy ran past me outside Subway. Was going to attempt to tackle him but decided against. He ran literally straight past me. Security were in no position to keep up with him.

Initially I wasn't sure if he was running for a bus or what he was at, though it was far too intense a run for that in hindsight. By the time I'd realised he was being chased he was past me.

Fair play to you for thinking of it anyway, a lot of people wouldn't have bothered

I'm not a D15 mod so I'm just a regular poster here

I do know the details though, he tried to rob a security guard who was delivering cash to a store. So yes, they are a scumbag.

Whatever about the getting involved part, I probably wouldn't have done it myself, but that's because I'm a 5ft 2inch titch of a girl. If I thought I could have helped and was there I probably would have.

if you did decide to trip him and it wasnt the guy running from the guards , something bad could have happened you!! and if anything did happen i cant say you didnt deserve it.

as a mod in general,i would have expected to see something a little less vulgar or some sort of judgement to be passed the way you did

yes what he did was wrong but doesnt make him a scumbag!!!!!!!!!! if a mother give a baby milk that was too warm does that make her a bad mother????:rolleyes:

Oh come off it, a mother giving her baby milk and a man robbing someone... yeah that's a brilliant comparison.

We all need more money, doesn't mean we go around robbing it.

Arciphel

What are you on about? Are you just trolling here or what? Are you saying the robber was trying to rob the cash in transit van to pay for medicine to soothe the burned roof of his infant's mouth because the mother gave the infant milk that was too hot? No, they actually makes more sense that what you are saying.

Actually it does.

And if you can't speak to other posters in a civil tone it's probably best you didn't speak to them at all.

Just read online that apparently Boylesports in Clonsilla was the victim of an armed raid today as well, maybe the two robberies are related.

:rolleyes: no !!!!! if you decide to take matters into your own hands that doest involve you ,which is pretty serious ,anything that may happen you deserve , let people who are trained to deal with this sort of stuff ,do what they're called into do rather than someone who thinks they're a big shot after watching a view movies,think they're doing good by tripping someone up
