I read an article that I was going to post here a few days ago, but I decided to take a deeper look. My first red flag was that there was no link to a company website in the article... Strange. As I'm reading the specs on this drone I'm becoming more and more suspicious so I take a look at their website. No working proof of concept, no video, no pictures of real equipment (all 3d renders) and to boot, they've superimposed a bunch of renders on real photo backgrounds.
Just making a prediction here, but this rig will NEVER come to be. It's simply far too dangerous to put in the hands of first responders. The kind of training and insurance this would require will stop it dead in its tracks, but they're acting like they're taking orders.

140-mph quadcopter has designs on first responders
If there's one thing that all types of first responders have in common, it's the fact that they put a premium on speed. The Recruit quadcopter was created specifically for such users, as it can reportedly fly at over 140 mph (225 km/h) and has a claimed 3-hour flight time.
