CLEVELAND — One of the Cleveland Police Department's helicopters flew over the Cleveland Guardians home opener last week, but when officers on the ground needed it for a recent chase, the chopper wasn't available.
Cleveland Police said it uses its choppers to help patrol officers, investigators and neighboring communities. Future plans call for enhancing support to reduce crime."Any chopper resources? Probably not, but I'll go on their channel," a dispatcher said."Radio, any luck with chopper? No chopper," a dispatcher said."Reach out to Ohio State Highway Patrol to see if their chopper's up?" an officer said.
Polensek says the unit is vital for pursuits and to patrol neighborhoods and special events downtown. Polensek says Director Howard and Chief Dornat"Wayne" Drummond will give an update Wednesday during the safety committee meeting on the choppers, patrol and other tools police use.
