Two recent arrests are highlighting the effectiveness of the Tulsa County Sheriff’s Office drone team.

Both arrests came on the same day on January 17th.

Deputies say they deployed a drone after they tracked down a domestic assault suspect, 45-year-old Donnie Bratton (pictured above), near 62nd Street North and Peoria.

Even though he ran into the woods, crossed a creek, and climbed onto a roof, they say the drone helped find him.

Later that day, deputies were called out to a report of a copper theft at 77th Street North and Peoria, and they say the drone helped establish a perimeter and spot 45-year-old Vincent Biggoose (pictured below), after he also ran away.
