In just the past two weeks, drone operations from the CSFD Special Operations Unit and the CSPD Real Time Crime Center have helped identify at least three suspects at active fire scenes, all now charged with arson-related crimes. The video below is from one of those instances. This technology is changing the game. From above, these drones give real-time visibility before crews arrive, helping locate suspects, guide responders, and deploy resources faster and more precisely. In recent fires, that speed has meant quicker response to grass and wildland incidents and stopping fires before they spread and threaten our community. CSFD and CSPD continue to show what’s possible when public safety and technology move together with one mission: protecting this city from every angle. @CSPDPIO
