Spokesman: No decision on drone crash at Kentucky's stadium

LEXINGTON, Ky. (AP) — University of Kentucky officials continue to investigate the crash of a student's drone into a section of Commonwealth Stadium before Saturday night's football game against Louisiana-Lafayette.

The school has not released the student's name, and spokesman Jay Blanton said Sunday a decision on any discipline isn't likely before Tuesday as university police determine what violations occurred.

The subject of drone use is a moving target, so to speak, as federal and local officials examine how to regulate them with growing personal and commercial use.

Kentucky does not have a written policy banning the unmanned aircraft, but as the school studies the issue Blanton said drones aren't allowed on campus and added, "it's pretty clear that they're not allowed around the stadium on game day.
