Video: Police Helicopter Arrest Simulation

At the Pasadena's Police Department heliport open house in Altadena on Saturday, Pasadena PD showed off some simulated arrests using their air fleet.

Saturday's Pasadena Police Department Air Operations open house event featured two demonstrations of how they might use their helicopters in conjunction with their police officers, SWAT, and canine teams.

We can't vouch for how authentic these simulations might be but the crowds at the event certainly appeared to enjoy them.
