TOKYO, April 22 (UPI) -- Japan will consider updating its UAV laws after a small drone containing radioactive material landed on the roof of Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's Tokyo residence.
The 20-inch wide, four-propeller drone, equipped with a camera and carrying non-hazardous amounts of radioactive cesium 134 and 137, was found by a member of Abe's staff Wednesday on the roof of the building, near Parliament. It is Chinese-made "Phantom" manufactured by DJI Technology Co., and of the same type flown onto the White House grounds in January.
