CLINTON, Conn. (AP) Connecticut authorities say a video showing a drone firing a handgun in the woods has prompted investigations by police and the Federal Aviation Administration.
Clinton police say the 14-second YouTube video was posted by 18-year-old town resident Austin Haughwout. He's the same teen who made news last year by posting a YouTube video showing him being assaulted by a woman upset about him flying a drone at a state beach.
WFSB-TV reports Haughwout's father said his son created the drone with a college professor as part of a project, after making sure he wouldn't break any laws.
Police say it appears no state laws were broken. FAA officials say they're trying to determine if aviation regulations were violated.
