Dealing with illegal drone flights is simple. All it takes,is a 12-bore shotgun or a special trained peregrine falcon.
A shotgun? They fire lead shot - tiny lead beads which spray and disperse, the spray pattern diverging very rapidly. Can't see that working. I would be using a burning laser pointer to burn the pixels out of the camera sensor and to melt the prop hubs.

Yup. Shotguns are considered firearms, so discharge within Citi limits is regulated as mentioned above.
You'd figure Apple if all places could have some high tech defense against drones. Seriously there isn't a single sparky working at Apple who can figure out a way to scramble the brains of a drone. After a few thousand + dollar drones go brain dead , people might get the message.
Lead shot? Well,guess you never fired a shotgun,lead shot has been forbidden in most civilized countries for the last 20 years or so,today's shot is made from steel,molybden,or for smaller prey plastic. And if you wonder how I know this,I can tell you I been hunting with shotguns and rifles the last 40 years.A shotgun?

Was mostly talking about illegal drones in general,but of course,for a low flying drone,a BB gun would also work. And about trained birds, in Europe we still use those for hunting sometimes.A shotgun? They fire lead shot - tiny lead beads which spray and disperse, the spray pattern diverging very rapidly.

Ok,maybe laws are different in different parts of Europe,I can not even buy lead shot or lead shot cartridges anymore,so I have to use plastic shot for my gun,as steel would ruin the barrels. Of course,that might depend on caliber,bore and the actual age of the gun,but as I only use shotguns for pheasants,ducks and quail,the plastic shots work for me.I've seen more shotgun cartridges than most people ever do. I've lived in a small English village for 35 years, surrounded by fields which are 2 mins walk from my house, visible from my garden, where they shoot pheasant and partridge every week. The point was the shot, not the lead - methinks you're just being pedantic, shot was the point, it scatters and would be ineffective against a drone, most likely.
Yes, I've shot a shotgun, I've taken cartridges apart too, and my best friend of 35 year's Dad was the gamekeeper since the 1980s and his kitchen drawers were FULL of cartridges and shot refills.
Ha! That is pretty funny commentary coming from a Swedish dudeDealing with illegal drone flights is simple. All it takes,is a 12-bore shotgun or a special trained peregrine falcon.
