St. Johns, MI – A weekend investigation in Clinton County showcased strong collaboration between law enforcement agencies after drone support from the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office helped assist St. Johns Police with an active case.
According to a post shared Monday by both departments, Deputy Bangs of the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office used a department drone to aid in the operation. St. Johns Police thanked the Sheriff’s Office publicly, noting that the technology and teamwork “help law enforcement be more successful and help keep our communities safer.”
Photos released by the Sheriff’s Office show deputies and officers coordinating near a patrol truck while operating the drone, which appears to have been deployed in a residential area. No additional details were released about the nature of the investigation, but both agencies emphasized the value of interdepartmental cooperation.
The Sheriff’s Office captioned its post, “Here’s to teamwork — the foundation that turns hard work into real results and makes the ‘dream work.’”
Drones have increasingly become a vital tool for Michigan law enforcement, offering aerial visibility in search efforts, crash reconstruction, and crime scene documentation.
This joint effort serves as another example of how partnerships between local police and county sheriff’s deputies continue to strengthen community safety across Clinton County.
