    The Rogue Drone

    This seemed like a solid drone. Was very good…until it wasn’t. It took off. Ignoring all commands of the controller. Im talking it said “I’m going back to the mothership”. As we watched in amazement in the setting sun, it flew full speed across the street smacking our neighbors tree and falling into another dimension. As two adults and a child set forth in the darkness with nothing but phone lights and hopes the cops are not called for suspicious activity. To no avail we returned the next day with light on our side. THE MYSTERY CONTINUES AS WE STILL HAVE NOT FOUND IT..
