If you discovered a drone flying over your property around July of last year, it was likely flown by a company called Tallon, which is not affiliated with southern California Edison, yet was supposedly inspecting electric power poles and lines. However, when the drones were found looking in through bedroom and bathroom windows, several complaints were filed. Shooting at drones is an FAA felony as drones are considered to be aircraft, so your only recourse is to video the drone and file a complaint with the sheriff’s department.
Officer Tyler Vanguard from the Morongo Basin Sheriff’s department addressed matters of law and order such as squatters, dope, theft and dumping. His constant advice was to pay attention, take video of individuals and very important: vehicles; notice things like height, stature, hair and eye color so when you call for help all details will be available for the responding officer.
