Since people are worried about this: I analyze the use of small drone tech in both peace and conflict for a living.
I believe there is simply very little strategic reason for US law enforcement to use kamikaze FPV drones (like those in Ukraine or Gaza) for internal purposes at this time.

(And while U.S. cops are way too militarized, there are in fact still a shit ton of things that the military uses that US cops do not use for a bunch of reasons).
