SFPD reports the apprehension of Joseph McBee, was possible through the combined efforts of several law enforcement agencies. This highlights the significance of cross-agency cooperation to ensure community safety.
A unique approach to combating crime is the usage of drone technology, which played a crucial role in safely capturing McBee. With drones augmenting traditional groundwork, officers receive live aerial feed, effectively acclimatizing to the suspect's movements.
