Police said the criminal case could be the first of its kind
A drone pilot who police said nearly caused a serious accident at a carnival flypast has pleaded guilty to endangering an aircraft in what could be the first prosecution of its kind, a force has said.
"Officers worked to identify the drone operator, a 49-year-old man from Buxton, and his drone was seized as part of their investigation. Analysis showed it was flying over Buxton at the time of the fly-past." Police added in the statement: "Following the case today, which may be one of the first of its kind, the Civil Aviation Authority and police are reminding drone operators of the need to fly safely and legally."
