EL PASO — A small drone used by Mexican federal police was flying in its country’s airspace before malfunctioning, forcing controllers to crash it across the Texas border in El Paso, a Mexican government official said Friday.
The unmanned aircraft was on routine patrol before it crashed Tuesday night in an El Paso yard, said the Mexican government official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak publicly about the issue.
No one was injured when the drone landed behind a house in a former agricultural area near the border, authorities said.
