Tokyo Police to Deploy Net-Carrying Drone to Catch Rogue Drones

http://time.com/4146372/tokyo-police-drone-nets/

The police drone will enter service sometime this month, according to Asahi Shimbun and the Kyodo news service. Its purpose will be to stop suspicious-looking drones that fly into restricted airspace near government buildings.
