By Tang Shih-ming and Jake Chung / Staff reporter, with staff writerThe Changhua County Police Department’s Criminal Investigation Corps yesterday conducted its first training session for its personnel to learn how to use National Police Administration jammers to disable drones. The agency began distributing jammers to police departments nationwide to combat an increase in drone use at mass gatherings, the corps said on Tuesday, when it acquired the devices. Jammers would only be used if a drone is affecting police duties or is deemed unsafe, the corps said. The training session was conducted with the help of the devices’ manufacturer, it said. One said that the jammer looked like a gun featured in the Men in Black films.
