Guy investigated for using a drone to fly to the store and pick up his lunch
So unjust.
An Australian man faces a huge fine after using his drone to fly to a local hardware store to pick up a sausage sandwich.
Drone footage obtained by EFTM shows a man placing a note in plastic bag reading "Please buy snag and put in bag, here's $10." He then flies the drone to the local Bunnings Warehouse 2 kilometres (1.24 miles) away to collect his delicious prize.

Bunnings is a home and hardware chain that has routine fundraising barbecues at its stores.
"Sausage sizzles" are basically social institutions in Australia, offering the opportunity to eat a cheap BBQ lunch and donate money to a local charity at the same time.
Bunnings barbecues combines the beloved national past-time with the act of going to a hardware store. A two for one.
While it is legal to fly a drone recreationally, there is strict rules around flying in and around areas with lots of people. You know, because of the whole accidentally falling onto someone thing.
Everyday Australians who understand the sanctity of the "Bunnings sausages sizzle" however, took to Twitter leaping to the defence of the accused, who may have to pay A$9000 ($6979) according to EFTM just because he was hungry.
