There was also a call in to a 911 department on the 13th of a drone crashing in someones backyard and then being swarmed by 10 others.

But I haven't seen a follow up from anyone on it yet.

Again, with no proof and likely not real. If there was a crashed drone, you'd imagine that they'd release a photo or something. The reality is that law enforcement officers are just as susceptible to mass hysteria as everyone else.
A drone crashes in my backyard most days. My drone.

The case referenced by Newsweek was a commercially available drone of the DJI variety.
