Unmanned Aerial Vehicle Drones Patrolling Las Vegas, Nevada Skies

This story comes from Public Intelligence. Public Intelligence says that the police are demanding that the documents be removed from the World Wide Web. Therefore, you should check the document out before it gets pulled. I'm not going to embed it here, but the link is here (use it as your own risk).

As of the date of this writing, the documents are still up and available, so it is probably too late to put the genie back in the bottle.


Public Intelligence has received several messages from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department requesting the removal of a Law Enforcement Sensitive document which was published on March 25, 2010 regarding Nevada’s “Silver Shield” infrastructure protection program. The document, which is from November 2007, reveals that Las Vegas Police are using unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and systems to patrol the city and deliver aerial imagery during incidents or special events.
