A missing at-risk juvenile was located by Wooster first responders this week thanks to the help of a drone. According to Wooster fire officials, the city’s police department requested the use of their drone on Tuesday night to find a boy who had walked away from home. The drone was deployed using thermal imaging technology, while Wooster PD units searched the area on foot. A short time later, a heat signature was located in a wooded area about a half mile away from the boy’s home. The juvenile was helped out of the woods and reunited with his family unharmed.
