Public Safety Watch: Iowa Patrol Reduces Aerial Ground Coverage
State Patrol cuts in air and ground surveillance amid reduced personnel. Trooper Jon Degen, senior pilot, and Trooper Jim Trainor spot a speeding driver on Interstate 30 from the Cessna. They identify Eugene Sadler of Chicago, 45, with a suspended license and open container, plus a $13 000 Illinois cocaine warrant, removing a potential threat from the road.
