Unfortunately a member of the UAW on the picket line attempted to knock down my drone.
This is very dangerous, irresponsible and a Federal felony.
If the drone was struck, it would have lost control and could have propelled anywhere including hitting a UAW member or crashing through a windshield on 17 Mile Rd and seriously injuring someone or worse.
The drone is in FAA compliance and was not flying over the UAW members and is registered with the FAA.
The incident took place in Sterling heights, Michigan at the corner of 17 Mile Rd and Mitchell Street at the Stellantis Sterling Heights Assembly Plant.
