Helicopter Searching

Last night, maybe around 6-8, there was a low flying chopper with a search light, circled and overall kept searching for a bit before taking off. Anyone hear of the reason for that?

Thanks

Saw them also in Hughesville area, 2 of them, they were not MSP or US Park, they were military choppers. This was around 630-700.

Depends on where you're talking about. Someone jumped from the TJ bridge last night. Watched the search for a bit and the helicopters were flying off in other directions, maybe that's what you saw?
