An unmanned U.S. reconnaissance drone has crashed in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, hitting the offices of one of Iraq’s biggest political parties, the U.S. military said.

No injuries were reported, and there was no indication the aircraft was shot down, said Major Derrick Cheng, a military spokesman in northern Iraq.

Cheng said it was a coincidence that the drone struck the local offices of the Iraqi Islamic Party, Iraq’s biggest Sunni Arab political group, the military said.

The cause of the crash is under investigation.

They had better start having these drones tested by fanboys.

  1. If it had been a manned U.S. reconnaissance drone, this would have been a much better story.

    If it had been a womanned U.S. reconnaissance drone, this would have been a truly great story.
