Police are reportedly looking for a white male with a tattoo of a woman on his body .
I replaced the word "drone" with the word "quadcopter" in the story because that's what the news report showed , a 4 bladed Heli that they claim to cost approx $1200 . Was it taking pictures/video for hire ? Or was it being piloted by yet another ignorant dolt without the good common sense to not fly directly over folk's heads ?
The rest of the wording is unchanged from the report I saw .....
