The police drone and dogs were scrambled to track down three men who ran from police after a shoplifting incident.
Norwich police said the incident happened on Tuesday in the Eaton area.
They said three men ran from police, but with the help of the police drone, the force dogs and the roads and armed unit they were located and detained.
They said it came as part of Operation Moonshot, an ongoing proactive operation to disrupt organised crime.
