It's officially forbidden to fly drones in New York City, but that hasn't stopped drones from proliferating, and stupid drone accidents are a recurring event.

The latest incident involved drone operator Gonzalo Medina, who was flying his drone near West 43rd Street and Broadway on Sunday, the Daily News reports. When the drone crashed at 45th Street and 7th Avenue, Medina was reportedly arrested and charged with reckless endangerment and unlawful operation of an unmanned aerial vehicle. (According to the News, no one was injured when Medina's drone crashed.)

The NYPD press office did not have record of the arrest when reached for comment. "It's possible he just got a summons," an NYPD spokesperson said.

There's a lot of conflicting information about the legality of drones in the city. According to the NYC.gov website, drones are "illegal to fly in New York City," and anyone who sees a drone being flown should call 911. However, it seems to be a gray area, with some people claiming it's legal to fly drones in certain areas of the city, including Central Park and Battery Park—but drone operators can still theoretically get into trouble for disobeying park rules. And flying a drone in the middle of midtown Manhattan is asking for trouble.

This past February, a New Jersey man was arrested after accidentally crashing his drone into the Empire State Building. Sean Riddle, whose drone crashed into the 6th floor of the skyscraper due to heavy winds, claims he asked police if it was legal to fly his drone. Riddle pleaded guilty to disorderly conduct and had to pay a $200 fine and complete two days of community service.

Aside from a sking a cop. I went to this website. Where to Fly a Drone in New York City, Legally https://t.co/8Li3jDNPaj via @Camera_Lends — Sean Nivin Riddle (@SeanRiddle12) February 6, 2016

The Federal Aviation Administration recently codified a set of rules for commercial drone users which, among other things, regulated the size of drones, banned flights above 400 feet, required the drone to be within sight of the pilot, and required pilots to be licensed with the FAA. Not all of these rules apply to hobbyists.

Drone laws aren't always applied evenly. Last September, a man was arrested after his drone crashed during a U.S. Open match in Flushing. Two months later, a Russian tourist received a summons for flying his drone during the Thanksgiving Day Parade. This July, a man was given a summons for endangering a flight at JFK after his drone flew into the path of a landing passenger jet.

Not every drone-user gets caught, though—just last month, a father-daughter duo released a (probably illegal, but pretty cute) drone video of Bushwick.
