Another Angel in the Sky will be watching over the city.
The Anaheim Police Department received City Council approval earlier this month for the $538,750 purchase of a 2006 Airbus AS350 B2 helicopter.
Anaheim already has two of that helicopter model in its fleet. Collectively known as Angel in the Sky, the helicopters are based at the Fullerton Municipal Airport and operated by the department’s Air Support Division Patrol.
Along with the half a million dollar price tag, the city has allocated $260,000 for equipping the helicopter with radios, monitors, a public address system and other hardware.
