McClatchy: Possible drone recovered on White House grounds

Probably some guy messing around but still

A device, possibly a drone, was recovered on the grounds of the White House Sunday morning.

White House Press Secretary Josh Earnest told reporters traveling with President Barack Obama in New Delhi that the Secret Service recovered a "device," though he declined to call it a drone, near the White House.

It poses no threat, Earnest said. He could not say whether members of the First Family were home at the time.

Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama are in India, but their daughters Sasha and Malia, did not accompany them.

and I've crashed it a few times. Nothing as dramatic as crashing it onto the White House grounds though. I hope the person didn't have it labeled with their name and address.

Just best to walk away, slowly, maybe whistling a little...
