The Aviation Unit helicopter was on patrol around 12:15 a.m. when it had to swerve to avoid the small, unmanned aircraft, the sources said.
Hmmmmm, did the TCAS paint the drones? Or was it the fire-control RADAR? How do you see something so small, in the dark, even if at a low airspeed? Something seems fishy, but I'm glad they got the creeps.
