After assisting in search and rescue operations, fire investigations, and even the scene of a homicide, the Rangitīkei Civil Defence Response Team and Rural Fire Force are looking to purchase a new drone. Used by the organisation for a variety of different purposes, drones are a fundamental tool in modern-day operations according to Rangitīkei Emergency Management Officer Paul Chaffe.
