KENTWOOD, Mich. — The Kentwood Police Department revealed some new hardware that it says will help officers do their jobs better.
A trio of new tactical drones have been added to the police department's arsenal, thanks to funding from a 2024 police and fire millage approved by voters.
The drones will be used for searches, finding suspects on the run, entering hazardous situations, and navigating into confined spaces, according to a social media post by the city.
A display of the drones' capability was made through a video shared to Facebook followers, when officers needed to find a person who ran after a crash.
