Daily Mail ·

A drone reportedly delivered McDonald’s food and alcohol to an inmate’s cell window at Canada’s Special Handling Unit, a high-security prison in Quebec. The incident has raised concerns among correctional officers about how drones can bypass security and potentially carry more dangerous contraband.

The delivery allegedly happened at about 3am on Thursday and included chicken nuggets, fries, sauce and alcohol. Union representative Mike Bolduc said drones have also been used to smuggle phones and knives into federal prisons, and called for netting around vulnerable areas; Correctional Service Canada has technology to detect drones.
