Police aerial assessment shows extent of Tropical Storm Grace destruction

On Wednesday afternoon, 18 August, Police helicopter X-Ray One carried out an aerial assessment to identify any persons who may have been in distress and assess damage caused by Tropical Storm Grace. A number of images were captured that demonstrate the high seas, destruction of vegetation, and flooding caused across Grand Cayman.

"We were airborne at the earliest chance on Wednesday, to locate persons who may need assistance and provide support to the ground resources by identifying damage. Whilst extensive flooding and infrastructure issues were seen across the Island, we were pleased to be able to provide reports to help towards the 'all-clear' being issued," says Head of RCIPS Air Operations Steve Fitzgerald.
