The city’s police department ramped up drone use over the Labor Day weekend this year.
Wardell Larson and his family always look forward to Labor Day weekend in Brooklyn. This recent one was much of the same: A barbecue on the block, music and a lot of laughter.
Larson though, found himself peeking up in the sky several times to see if a police surveillance drone hovered over him and his family. “It just had us a little on edge, I told everyone not to be too loud so the police wouldn’t think we were doing anything wrong,” Larson told theGrio.
When the NYPD today!
