a drone carrying heroin, marijuana, and tobacco dropped its payload over a prison yard crowded with inmates, causing a brief melee before authorities stamped out the brawl with pepper spray, according to the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction (ODRC).
Local media reported Tuesday that the July 29 melee at the Mansfield Correctional Institution began moments after a drone let loose with the goods. At least nine inmates began fighting over the package while other inmates rushed toward the brawl.
Hmm, time for cryo prisons? Or should the drug delivery man switch to drones that can travel through the plumbing?

Guns are not generally useful in prison because they draw so much attention when used. It makes them single-use and a guarantee of being caught. A cool movie plot, but not much value in real life.
