SACRAMENTO, Sept. 29 (UPI) -- California Gov. Jerry Brown vetoed a bill requiring search warrants for law enforcement drone use, saying it put too many restrictions on police.
In his veto message, Brown said Sunday that the bill exceeds the protection against unreasonable search and seizure in the U.S. and California constitutions. The bill would have required police to obtain warrants from judges to use drones except in environmental emergencies.
