Tuscola County Sheriff Glen Skrent thanked businesses and individuals who helped raise funds for the department to purchase a drone.
He singled out businesses along with numerous citizens who stepped up to help raise money.
The sheriff’s desire to purchase a drone was brought up at a Caro Rotary Meeting and the Northstar Bank- Caro Branch, took an interest by holding a candy bar and a hot dog barbecue that raised over fifteen hundred dollars in three weeks.
Sheriff Skrent said the drone will help his office in locating missing children, aid at accident scenes and with officer and public safety in critical circumstances.
