Now, the Predator drone can be so useful to law enforcement throughout the country. Not only can it track the activities of world criminals, but also those of American troublemakers.

As reported by FOX News, the first time a Predator drone was used to aid police officials occurred in North Dakota. A farmer, Rodney Brossart, and his sons were accused of stealing their neighbor’s cattle in 2011, and when later approached by officers, protested with arms, said FOX.

Big brother is officially capable of so much more. The drone was not wandering around North Dakota and happened to see activity by Brossart and sons, it was ordered to do so.

According to the Grand Forks Herald, this story is wide spread because the Nelson County Sheriff Kelly Janke involved the U.S. Border Patrol and used a drone to surveillance the area, which aided in their arrests.

An example has been made for law-breaking citizens. No matter how you cover your tracks or resist authorities, the law could use a drone to catch your schemes.
