cloudwalker Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 We were out doing a little reccy for some Pigeon on Friday, just checking out a couple of fields when in front of us we noticed the road was blocked. At first we thought a car had gone in the ditch. I then noticed a load of blokes standing around about 4 cars. One of them flagged us to a halt. It was then we noticed the guns All of them were armed to the teeth with assault rifles, 9mm semi auto pistols and tazers We had just pulled up in front of a armed police stop. All the guns were pointed a 2 blokes in the surrounded car. One was ordered out and made to lay on the ground. The second followed shortly. They were both cuffed and dragged into one of the unmarked police cars. Then the guns were put away and they all drove off with a thumbs up as they went. I dont know what it was all about and no there weren't any TV cameras about but it left us both quite shocked :( . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackbart Posted October 14, 2007 Report Share Posted October 14, 2007 If they all drove away including the suspects car it was police training They do a lot of it around here,chases,seige etc etc If they were real suspects the car wouldnt have been touched until forensics had crawled all over it and they certainly wouldnt have left it ungarded.

Didn't look like training to me, certainly not the way the road was blocked off. Thought it might be a drugs bust perhaps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dead-Eyed Duck Posted October 15, 2007 Report Share Posted October 15, 2007 You were perfectly safe as long as you weren't carrying a chair leg in a plastic bag...... :lol: or, if you weren't being held down by two of them whilst a third held a gun to your face..... :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
