"The drone was given to me as a graduation gift from my parents for making honor roll," Harris told ABC News. Although it took some time to get the drone airborne, Harris says he flew the Phantom up to 50mph. floating around 20 feet above the speeding thieves. He was apparently able to keep up long enough to get a great shot of the thieves from above, before he eventually lost track of them. Even so, the footage was enough for the local sheriff's Department, the cops were waiting for the boat thieves when they arrive their destination.
