Footage shared with the ECHO shows two choppers circling the site in the early hours of Thursday, March 18 from 12.30am. On the video, people can also be seen getting lowered down from the helicopter onto the roof from a rope.

A spokesperson for Jaguar Land Rover Halewood told the ECHO that a Ministry of Defence training exercise was taking place. The exercise was used to train pilots flying at low altitudes in and around urban environments.
