Flying drug mule crashes in Manchester prison

M7S

Official phrasing

"a drone was successfully intercepted" according to HMP.

"it crashed and was found" according to the press.

If the press are correct, I hope that this is not the kind of "successful interception" relied on by other government services in these days of limited resources, for example I'd hate to think that a successful interception of an enemy aircraft by the RAF relied entirely on johnny foreigner being a poor pilot and steering into the ground for no good reason.
