Massachusetts Police Use Thermal Camera Drone to Locate Missing Two-Year-Old

Police used a thermal camera drone to find a missing two-year-old child in Freetown, Massachusetts, on Friday, December 16, according to the Dartmouth Police Department.Officers, joined by canine teams and the fire department, searched for the toddler after responding to a reported stabbing where the suspect, Angel-Leah Duarte, fled with her child, Freetown Police said.Video posted by the Dartmouth Police Department, which they said was captured on Friday, in Freetown, shows the heat signature seen on the drone’s thermal camera “when the child was located and recovered.”Freetown Police reported that the child was taken to a local hospital due to “prolonged exposure to the rain and cold temperature.”Dartmouth Chief of Police Brian Levesque said: “This incident was the perfect example of where the crossroads of technology and good teamwork came together. Had it not been for the use of our drone, and the excellent communication between my two officers, the outcome of this incident would have most likely been grave."
