This isn't the first time that drones have caused havoc over wildfires in recent months. Aircraft couldn't take off to fight the Lake Fire last month and were similarly delayed by an errant drone hovering over the Mill Creek Canyon Fire on July 12th. "Drone operators are risking lives when they fly over an emergency situation," Assemblyman Gatto told KCAL 9. "Just because you have access to an expensive toy that can fly in a dangerous area that doesn't mean you should do it." The bill does not stipulate how firefighters would deal with offending drones. My guess: water cannon.
