He deplores that “every year”, among the numerous public strolls in the streets on the occasion of Halloween festivities, some “give rise to public order disturbancessometimes “intended for internal security forces”.
Pierre-André Durand, prefect of Haute-Garonne, therefore decided to exceptionally authorize the use of drones by the police from this Thursday, October 31 and for two days, in three municipalities in the department, all in zone police. The details.
Police will be able to “benefit from wide-angle vision” until Saturday
The authorization of use, in force since 3 p.m. this Thursday, runs until 5 a.m., Saturday November 2.
