Fighting crime from the air is a tool the Chicago Police Department says they desperately need, but the department only has three helicopters.
Fighting crime from the air is a tool the Chicago Police Department says they desperately need, especially with the city's no vehicle pursuit policy. However, the department only has three helicopters."One of them we purchased for one dollar," 42nd Ward Ald. Brendan Reilly said. "It's decades old and incredibly fuel inefficient, so it's not worth the department's time.
Covering 975 square miles with over 125 municipalities, Cook County shares CPD's aging helicopters during a time when carjackings across the city and county are way up. Dart said carjacking arrest numbers go way up with the use of helicopters because they can safely and quickly follow the stolen vehicle from the air.
