MOSCOW (Sputnik) — The Times newspaper reported that Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe, the head of the Met police, was shown a video of an eagle catching the drone and was so impressed by it he had dispatched during a meeting a senior officer to determine whether such practice could work in London.
"As would be expected in an organisation that is transforming we take an interest in all innovative new ideas and will of course be looking at the work of the Dutch police use of eagles," a police spokesman said, as quoted by The Guardian newspaper.
Earlier this month, the Dutch police started working with Guard From Above, a raptor-training security firm, to train birds to catch drones.
