Police work continues to evolve. The Arlington Police Department’s Aviation Unit operates a small unmanned aerial system (sUAS), drones, to assist with missing person searches, rescue missions, high-risk calls, foot pursuits, event security and major accident scenes. They are one of the many tools available to APD officers in an ongoing effort to keep Arlington residents and visitors safe in these and other situations that arise. This month, Sergeant Robert Robertson will give us an update on the Aviation Unit, drones and missions. The Aviation Unit is comprised of specially-trained police officers from various areas of the department, and operates multiple aircraft depending on the mission required.
