The NYPD will begin using drones to find lost children, search for suspects, respond to other emergencies and patrol neighborhoods as part of an expanded program to use the flying remote controlled vehicles, Mayor Adams and police officials said Wednesday.which began by using the devices to respond to gunshots in five precincts.
“I want the drone team to be on patrol like a regular police car that you see driving up and down,” Daughtry said. “I want them to do the same thing, looking for any type of anomalies, looking for any fights. Just I want them to be on patrol to add an extra layer of eyes up there.”. On Wednesday, Daughtry credited bringing drones to Central Park for decreasing crime.
“The drones watched him take off his clothes and put them into his bag as he walked into the bodega,” Daughtry said. “When he walked back outside, he was met by uniformed police officers where he was placed under arrest.”
