Australian Police Pilot Skyward Drones to Aid Crime-Fighting Efforts

TL;DR Summary
New PolAir-Remote drones deployed in Moree, NSW, are remotely piloted to prevent, disrupt, and respond to crime, with live video feeds from Bankstown Airport. After installing two drones, police have already used them to assist in assaults, burglaries, and stolen-vehicle incidents, recover cars, arrest a 14-year-old, and even observe fires to alert firefighters. The six-month trial could expand to more locations as officials report early success and plan for broader rollout.
