Looking at the pic it looks quite a controlled crash landing.

The heli pad is half a mile from the pub, the pub had flat roof so as much as i hate to admit dodgeys theory could be likely.

Don't discount mechanical failure though. A sudden transmission failure would cause an immediate loss of power, for example.

a police hellicopter crashed on the roof of a house in cardiff years ago, that was due to a rotor failure

they're 10 million pounds worth of kit thought they'd be rigorous tests against the posibilty of mechanical failure.. think its the 1st time i've seen a report of a police helicopter crash in years

I read a witness report that said one man never heard rotor noises before the crash. That could mean that the helicopter stalled during an emergency autorotation landing.

We've had electric helicopters for a while now, didn't know Scotland could afford one though.
