[QUOTE="Rooster1971, post: 1996600, member: 19292"] (GunAuction.com) Police are investigating an incident at a Pennsylvania shooting club in which someone apparently shot and grounded an animal-rights-group spy drone. SHowing Animals Respect and Kindness (SHARK) is an anti-hunting group attempting to harass the Wing Pointe commercial hunting grounds in Hamburg, Berks County, into shutting down its live pigeon shoots, reports NBC10-TV in Philadelphia. SHARK began to use an Octocopter, a remote-controlled flying machine with a high tech video camera, to secretly record the pigeon shoots as they happen. The drone, nicknamed Angel, was recording a live pigeon shoot on Sunday around 3 p.m. when investigators say it was struck by gunfire. The group says the cameras video feed was terminated and the drone went out of control before it was manually brought down. The gunshot caused around $4,000 in damage to the camera, according to SHARK. State Police are investigating the incident. SHARK claims this is the fourth time the drone has been shot at while trying to spy on the clubs pigeon shoots. The Berks County's district attorney told NBC10-TV that the pigeon shoots are legal and that he also wants to find a way to put a stop to what he considers a "potentially deadly cat and mouse game" between SHARK and Wing Pointe.
