High profile court case/police convoy?

Recommended Posts

Saw it this morning heading down saville street into sheffield under the bridge and upto the crown court, police appeared out of nowhere stopped the traffic for about 5 mins then a huge prison transport type van with like 5 bikes and cars flew past at the end of the road where it meets the wicker.

 

Previous post is right (unless there are loads of big cases on at the moment) its the Jordan kid that got killed on the parkway a while back. Was funny, it was like something out of a movie, I was expecting them to be transporting the Joker or something the number of police they had was crazy.

Last few days up and down halofax road. Very large police escorts on bikes and cars. So im assuming a high profile person. I dont read papers. So any idea who it is or the case? Thanks

...at about 08:30 near Meadowhall? Police motorbikes cleared the 3rd lane paving the way for what looked like a prisoner transport vehicle. Immediately behind the transport was a police Range rover with a lit-up sign 'Armed' followed by more Police motorcycles.

 

Anyone any idea who was being transported?

Probably the same convoy that stopped traffic on my way home last night near the courts - I wondered the same thing then myself! Not sure which court case it might be though.

The trial has been going on for a couple of weeks now. There's usually a thread about the convoy every day :)

Ive been into sheffield this afternoon and parked in the car park next to the crown court. when i returned to the motor just after four there were three armed response 4x4`s and two outrider bikes waiting by the back gates of the court building just as a prison van was about to come out the gates.

 

Im assuming it will be the same escort you are talking about.

Could they be transporting prisoners? This has been going on for weeks now, longer than any trial. The 'procession' went through Chapeltown today. It's a very expensive maneuver and gets on my nerves personally. They have even synced the traffic lights on pennistone Road. Ridiculous

I had one of these outriders ride up behind me and at around 10 mph he then slammed his hand on my boot then shouted at me to move. Yes i was in the way but it was the 2 cars in front of me who made it impossible to move anywhere and my passengers didnt appreciate the scare.

Hahahaha yes scrapper! There again today at rush hour on pennistone Road. You'd think they'd chose a quieter time if they are so high profile. Let's hope that's the end of it
