DALE COUNTY – DOTHAN: The above are some TIC TOKS that WASP ( Wiregrass Aviation Support Program ) has posted.
The WASP helicopter, a partnership with several communities, but largely supported by Dale County Sheriff Department and Dothan Police is a great asset to the area law enforcement.
Moments ago there was a fight involving several subjects. The aircraft responds overhead and as law enforcement officers to Eye In The Sky lights up the scene and watching from overhead. And from overhead they can follow anyone which flees the scene.
The WASP unit flies overhead routinely, on routine patrol. You have to guess when they are on patrol. RSN recieves frequent texts, TEXT RICKEY 334-790-1729, why is the aircraft flying. Just because they are flying does not always mean a specific mission but a overhead flight on routine patrol.
In a recent murder the WASP unit was overhead and helped pin the suspect within a small area. The suspect was apprehend 1 mile from where the murder took place.
