New Video Shows Shot Down Drone Hovered For Only 22 Seconds

Posted by samzenpus on from the don't-shoot-the-drone dept.

AmiMoJo writes: The saga of the drone shot down in Kentucky got a little bit longer today. A new video from the drone shot down by William Merideth shows that it only hovered over his property for 22 seconds, and was not "peeping". The video shows the drone hovering at altitude and surveying the area before falling out of the sky. Although the video jumps around a little, the drone's owner claims that it was not edited. The shooter says he did not know if the drone was being operated by a paedophile, criminal or ISIS terrorist before he opened fire.

      The shooter says he did not know if the drone was being operated by a paedophile, criminal or ISIS terrorist before he opened fire.

      Why is this an either/or situation? Has the shooter never heard of the legendary Criminally Paedophilic ISIS Terrorist?
