Drone injured woman's eye at Las Vegas casino July 4th party, lawsuit says

A couple is suing Caesar’s Palace Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas after a bloody encounter with a drone during 4th of July celebrations.

Monika and Joseph Nourmand said they were attending an Independence Day firework show at Caesar’s on June 30 when they were surprised during a drone light show near the hotel pool.

The lawsuit alleges that one drone flying over the crowd crashed into Monika Nourmand, hitting her in the face injuring her eye, then hitting her mother-in-law, who the family said was injured on her neck and back. The Nourmands say they shot video of the aftermath showing the drone on the ground and gashes across and below Monika Nourmand's eye, along with her bloodied blouse.

from what I recall about that story is it was pilot error, no mention though

Looked to me that the drone was part of the show. It defiantly wasn’t a consumer drone

I guess that's one way to hit the jackpot in Las Vegas. Caesar's will probably offer her a nice payout.

I spent a couple minutes on their website and couldn’t get a closeup of the drones. Those intel drones that do these shows look almost impossible to cause injury.

I hope this incident doesn’t bankrupt these guys. I assume they are from my state of Michigan.

Thats why all commercial operators carry public liability insurance.
