Did You Hear Low-Flying Choppers in Elmhurst Wednesday Night?

Elmhurst residents, did you notice those low-flying helicopters buzzing just overhead, rumbling the neighborhoods Wednesday night?

Well, they heard them in Forest Park, too. Police officials in that town said it was a training exercise. They wouldn't say much else.

"The only thing I can tell you is that it’s a training exercise between the United States military and the Forest Park Police Department," a Forest Park police official told Oak Park Patch.

The loud rumblings began around 9 p.m. Wednesday, drawing residents out of their homes, and Elmhurst Patch received a few emails inquiring about all the racket.
