YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Police in Frisco, Texas, used a drone to track down a man suspected of robbing a Walmart on March 31.

Footage from the Frisco Police Department shows an officer working with patrol units, a drone, and K9s to track down a man accused of threatening a Walmart employee with a weapon and demanding money.

Police said that after obtaining the cash, the suspect fled the store on foot, where he was tracked to an alleyway by Officer Nelson.

“With the help of drone technology and a coordinated perimeter, officers were able to quickly locate the suspect and recover stolen property,” police said.

Footage shows the suspect exiting a backyard with his hands up, and complying with police before being handcuffed and led to a police vehicle.
