Using a drone, police tracked down a youth accused of firing a gun inside an apartment building in the 1200-block of North Galapago Street in Denver.
No one was hurt in the Jan. 19 incident. Police recovered two weapons, one of which was stolen. The drone was first to arrive on the scene and provided an overhead view as officers entered the building.
"The suspect attempted to flee," police said. "During the foot chase, he produced a handgun and threw it over the railing to the ground below.
"DPD's Drone Unit located the discarded firearm and maintained visual until officers recovered it," police said. "Officers quickly detained the suspect and discovered he was carrying a second handgun in a front satchel."
