Night vision devices are one of the most modern crime fighting tools available to our deputies. Even in complete darkness, our helicopter is able to watch a burglar as he tries to break into a car and direct Deputy Steve Lewis to his location. The FLIR provided an element of surprise that allowed Deputy Lewis to catch the suspect without him even knowing he was being watched. This new equipment is also used in surveillance operations and to locate missing people or fleeing suspects.
