A resident called the Bal Harbour Police Department to report that a drone had crashed into her rear yard
by the pool. When officers arrived they found a small white drone equipped with a camera which
sustained considerable and disabling damage. The camera did not have a secure digital memory card;
therefore the video could not be reviewed. The officers conducted an area canvass but were unable to
