Drones at a Christmas show in Florida collided in mid-air and were sent careening to the crowd below at high speed resulting in several reported injuries — including a young boy whose mothers say is clinging to life.

The Orlando Fire Department told News 6 that one person suffered a minor injury in the mishap, however, two mothers claim their son — who was apparently struck in the face by a rogue drone — was left “fighting for his life in the ER.”

Startling video shows the holiday display gone wrong play out, complete with shocked gasps from the audience and cries of frightened children.

Picture shown boy hit in the face. Mother says hit in the chest. Some speculation it could have been a pre-existing condition. Who knows.

The government says the drones pose no danger to the public.

Two “mothers”.

Sounds like a lawsuit scam. Some weird accident happens and they see dollar signs.

These drones are slow, fragile, and weigh next to nothing. Aside from a scratch, I doubt any injury could occur.

“...hundreds of colored drones, some of which broke free of the pack and started zipping toward the ground.”

They’ve achieve consciousness and are rebelling already.

"The aerial Christmas light show featured hundreds of colored drones, some of which broke free of the pack and started zipping toward the ground.

Shouldn't that be "drones of color"?

I'm droned out. I'm teched out. I think I'll take a walk in the woods.

As a complete non sequitur, I'd like to quote citizen detective John Walsh:

"I'm throwing the book at joint and muscle pain, that's why there's OmegaXL."

I can only guess that with all this “drone” news occurring, government wants to ban citizens from holding or operating drones.

Mothers Jessica Lumedge and Adriana Edgerton shared a picture on Facebook of their son in a hospital bed with a bloody upper lip, and now say the boy is undergoing emergency heart surgery.

Poor child didn't deserve that.

Okay, it’s “safe” to fly hundreds of drones over a Christmas crowd, but it’s not safe to shoot down an unidentified drone over a sparsely populated area of Northwestern New Jersey.

Nah, I think it just shows that we Americans can't do this sh*t nearly as well as the ChiComs, who seem to have elaborate -- if, ultimately, trivial and tedious -- aerial drone shows down to a fine science.

Although, for all I really known, maybe the Chinese suffer the occasional collateral damage too from these stunts, and it just isn't reported.

It is time to outlaw drones. They kill and injure people.

The government does what it does best. They lie.

Good grief! Is the NYP using semi-literate employees to write headlines?
