A New Jersey business owner used a drone to drop damaging dye into pools at homes and a motel in Atlantic County in recent weeks, authorities said.
Patrick Spina IV, 45, of Absecon, was arrested at his business in Galloway on Friday after Absecon police and other law enforcement agencies tracked the drone back to Comfort Solutions Heating and Cooling, officials said.
Absecon police began investigating Aug. 13 after homeowners called to say a drone hovering over their pool dropped a dye into it. The dye turned the pool water “an alarming shade of green.”
Police then got reports from other homeowners also saying the dye discolored their pools.
Absecon police charged Spina shortly after the drone stuck again on Friday, dropping the dye into the pool at the Quality Inn in Galloway. Police took Spina into custody after seeing the drone land at his business on White Horse Pike.

When my kids were young, I had a large above ground pool. I filled it with city water from a garden hose. Very expensive and long process. Within 48 hours after filling, the water turned black as coal.
I knew the kids couldn’t possibly track that much mud into it in such a short time, the pool was surrounded by grass.
I went to the city water company to seer if I could get any info from them. When the lady saw my address, she had an explanation for me. My section of town was on a new well and the water had ca lot of magnesium in it and after it sits for a while it turns black. She assured me that it was harmless to drink.

My dad owned a glass company. Before he bought into it they became a union shop.
Apparently the final step was when they finished a storefront job. That night all the glass was shattered with a union business card taped to the frame.

What a great crew.
