Bend P-D Chief Porter Using Drones

BEND, OR -- Bend Police Chief Jim Porter said they have not seen spikes in domestic violence calls since the Stay-At-Home order went into effect. He says officers are prepared and well-staffed with a multifaceted team that includes a psychologist and technical support to help in a variety of situations. He is also introducing drones into the way law enforcement does business. Chief Porter says that while the technology is helpful, it is simply another tool. The key is having a well-trained team which enables them to respond immediately to the scene and begin helping quickly.
