Drone flies pair of bolt cutters to jail as part of escape plot
[MIRROR.CO.UK] Prisoners tried to escape from a jail by flying in a pair of bolt cutters on board a drone.
Maybe they should fly a few sets into the Trump rally?
The aircraft’s remote operator unloaded the tools near the prison’s perimeter fence.
But the bizarre escape plot failed when guards alerted cops - who seized the kit before it could be hauled in by lags at HMP Featherstone , Staffs.
The drone also contained banned mobile phones and a consignment of drugs, said to include the deadly super-strength legal high Spice.
A police probe into the smuggling bid was underway last night.
A source said: “It was only by luck that a staff member saw the drone and witnessed it dump its load outside the fence.
“The theory is the operator made a mistake and the parcel should have been unloaded inside the jail.”
