Water-dropping choppers were brought in to help keep the fire from spreading. The Los Angeles Police Department said a drone smacked into one of its helicopters, which was dispatched to the scene of the fire. Police said the pilot was forced to make an emergency landing.

Yes yes, ACAB. That still doesn't make your answer in any way relevant.

    You don't think the past actions of an organisation is relevant in determining what their present day actions may be?

    Do you have any reason to believe they were assisting?

    at about 2:52 p.m., the helicopter returned to the Tarzana area along the 101 Freeway between Balboa Boulevard and Reseda Boulevard, just more than 1.5 miles from the fire in Encino, to assist officers searching for a reported kidnapping suspect.
