PERSOID METEOR SHOWER AND DRONES!

     On August 14, a
citizen in the Northwest corner of

Eureka Township stepped outside to view the Persoid 

meteor shower around 10:30 p.m.

     When he looked south, he noticed a drone hovering roughly

 1/2 mile or so from his location. It was a bright light, relatively

stationary for 20 minutes or longer. As a licensed drone pilot, he 

was very aware that flying drones at night is against FAA

regulations (unless you're law enforcement and have a waiver).

     When the incident was mentioned to another resident in the same

area, she mentioned that several nights before, when she was sitting

on the deck late at night, she noticed a drone passing over a 

neighbor's house. The light was bright enough to reflect off the

house.

     This is ILLEGAL activity. Call 911 if you see one. You will not hear

it unless it is right over you.
