## Resource

Kirkwood’s police are deploying high-tech drones this Fourth of July to tackle the flood of illegal fireworks complaints—equipped with spotlights, infrared cameras, and loudspeakers to pinpoint troublemakers fast, keep officers safe, and free up patrol resources for real emergencies. While the holiday’s pyrotechnics are still off-limits in the city, the goal is clear: celebrate safely, and let the pros handle the explosions.
