British comedian Mo Gilligan says police once followed him after they mistook him for someone else. Gilligan describes the incident as involving “six cars and a helicopter,” which he said followed him for a period before officers realized who he was. Both reports present the account as a personal recollection rather than a verified operational detail, and they do not cite specific dates, locations, or identities of any other individuals allegedly involved in the mistake. The Mirror adds that the follow-up ended quickly once the officers recognized Gilligan. The Independent reports the core claim—that police tailed him with multiple vehicles and a helicopter due to a mistaken identity—without adding further information beyond his statement. No sources provide additional documentation, official confirmation, or outcomes of any related investigation. The reports therefore focus on Gilligan’s portrayal of the event and the speed with which it resolved once police recognized him.
