Sky Coppers
Behind the scenes with the West Midlands Police Drone Unit who hunt criminals from the sky. Drone tech is a specialist ultra-modern tool that has the capacity to help officers as they conduct investigatations and attempt to track criminals. The Unit pursues suspected wrongdoers as they try to hide up in the trees, discard drugs, or run away from the scene of a crime. The Sky Coppers make it a point to watch from above because, as they know from experience, criminals always forget to look up.
