For several nights, someone was throwing rocks at cars as they passed under a railroad bridge over Highway 14 in Fitchburg, Wisconsin. After at least 18 vehicles were damaged over three separate nights of random attacks, police decided on an innovative plan to catch the guilty party by using a drone for surveillance.

According to an official press release, the rock throwing attacks happened on August 15, 16, and 19 between 10:00 and 10:30 pm. Luckily, only two people reported injuries to authorities, both of them minor. But we’ve seen fatal incidents with rocks thrown at cars, so the situation had to be treated seriously.
