Eyes in the sky: Greeley police test drones as first responders

The Greeley Police Department is exploring a high-tech leap in public safety by testing drones that could one day be the first on scene when someone calls 911.

GREELEY, Colo. (KDVR) — The Greeley Police Department is exploring a high-tech leap in public safety by testing drones that could one day be the first on scene when someone calls 911.

“We’re hoping to see the impact that the drone as a first responder has on our response time and the type of information we’re trying to gain as we get to a call to identify suspects, directions of travel, and just provide real-time information to our responding officers,” said
Tanya Gutierrez, commander with the Greeley Police Department.
