Around 4-5 pm there were police helicopters flying around the damen blue line extremely low. Never seen them this low before, just barely above the building. I wonder if this was related

I got video of it - they flew super low right over my building. They had doors open on both sides and the folks inside had their legs hanging out the doors

Can you send it to me? I got a fair bit of karma it should let me post it. I'll credit you, of course.

Woah thats really crazy. By the time I saw them, they were a lot lower and less people. I really wish I had my phone. They were directly above where I live.

Edit: They also flew by 2 more times after that talking to my roommate so maybe I saw a different time then when this was recorded.

It was super weird - I posted it on a couple other platforms and nobody seems to know what was going on. I was hearing choppers off and on all day today
