11/25/2007: "Unmanned planes used to spy on US citizens"

Houston police started testing unmanned aircraft and the event was shrouded in secrecy, but it was captured on tape by Local 2 Investigates.

Executive Assistant Police Chief Martha Montalvo told reporters the unmanned aircraft would be used for "mobility" or traffic issues, evacuations during storms, homeland security, search and rescue, and also "tactical." She admitted that could include covert police actions and she said she was not ruling out someday using the drones for writing traffic tickets.

A large number of the officers participating in the test were assigned to the department's ticket-writing Radar Task Force.
