The drone operator had better do time, and be fined, in this instance. Mental midget. . .

FAA has some huge fines and sentencing for drone interference with emergency flights.

It was a news reporter with the drone.
Hope they and their station get a Massive Fine !!!

I hate these damn drones. I get the whole “commercial use” thing, but I do not like them. Too much bs, folks flying ‘em where they shouldn’t be, etc.
