Report of drone activity in Wakefield area

1 min read

Police have just recently received a report of a drone flying in the Wakefield area.

Police ask that anyone operating a drone cease this urgently.

Drone activity has the potential to stop all helicopters responding to the emergency fire situation.

This is extremely dangerous and our priority is to ensure the helicopters can continue with their work.
