Polisen i den kinesiska provinsen Shenzhen har gripit en liga med smugglare som använt drönare för att smuggla iPhones från Hong Kong.
Hittills har 26 personer gripits och ligan misstänks ha smugglat iPhone värda nästan 80 miljoner dollar från Hong Kong till fastlands Kina.
“It’s the first case found in China that drones were being used in cross-border smuggling crimes,” the Legal Daily reported, citing a news conference held by Shenzhen customs on Thursday.
The smugglers usually operated after midnight and only needed seconds to transport small bags holding more than 10 iPhones using the drones, the report quoted customs as saying. The gang could smuggle as many as 15,000 phones across the border in one night, it said.
