Rural crime officers in the Derbyshire Dales to use drones to target crime
PCs Andy Shaw and Karl Webster of the Derbyshire Rural Crime Team have passed their PfCo drone flying course, an exam and practical flying assessment which now means they have permission to pilot drones commercially.
Sgt. James Shirley, of Derbyshire Rural Crime Team, said: “Drones can bring about great benefits to policing which can give us more capability when it comes to preventing and detecting crime, especially in the Peak District and in rural based incidents now that we have two officers from our team trained and qualified for drone support.”
