Search And Rescue Goes High Tech

Over the weekend crews with Texas EquuSearch used a drone to help locate the body of a missing Liberty County boy. The drone is just one of several pieces of high tech equipment used to locate missing people.


The body of two year old Devin Davis was located in a pond that was so full of algae, a boat couldn’t be used because the vegetation got stuck in the propeller.

It was a drone aircraft that eventually spotted the body from the air. EquuSearch’s Ken DeFoor says the drone belongs to an EquuSearch volunteer.

"He builds these and sells them commercially. He’s also a member of Texas EquuSearch. And when we have a search similar to this where we need aerial surveillance, we can call Gene in."
