NEW YORK — There will be eyes in the sky over New York City’s public beaches every day starting this weekend.
The FDNY and NYPD will use drones to scan sharks at least an hour before beaches open each morning.
If there are no sightings, swimming is allowed, but if a shark is spotted, the beach will close for at least an hour, or until the coast is clear.
This comes after several reports of shark bites and sightings on beaches in the area so far this summer.
