The outrageous real-life Grand Theft Auto story that unfolded in Ireland on Sunday

This could easily be in a movie script.

OK, this is one of the most unbelievable Irish stories we've heard in a very long time so strap yourself in and read on. Early on Sunday morning, around 5.30am, three teenagers went down to Dun Laoghaire Harbour and managed to get aboard a 40 foot yacht. The didn't just mess around on it, they started it, and took it out on the Irish Sea and headed south. According to reports, they made it as far as Wexford (!) before turning around. In the meantime, the owners of the yacht noticed their MASSIVE yacht was missing so they notified the Gardaí and some boat clubs in the area. According to the Irish Independent, the teens were spotted at Greystones Marina at 1:30pm when the Garda Air Support Unit was dispatched. There the teenagers started a "dangerous game of cat and mouse with the garda helicopter for up to half-an-hour" while they sped around other boats near the marina. The game was pretty much up then and they had to escape so they ran the yacht aground around 3pm near South Beach in Greystones. Two of the youngsters ran for it through fields and the other stayed behind, but they were all eventually tracked down by the gardaí and taken to Bray garda station. Two of the teenagers were released earlier today and the other remains in custody. Unbelievable. Source: Irish Independent.
