A New York City woman taking in the Macy’s Fourth of July fireworks extravaganza two years ago was struck and badly injured by a “rogue drone” that plummeted from the sky during a pre-show exhibition, according to a state lawsuit reviewed by The Independent.
Cherika Sukhnandan was watching the 2023 Independence Day festivities from the fourth-floor balcony of a Long Island City building as swarms of drones performed a synchronized aerial routine over the East River, massing together to form images of, among other things, the Statue of Liberty and an American flag.
