That's not so bad. I'd use a shotgun myself - there wouldn't be much
surviving it. Several firms have developed microwave transmitters that
put a powerful, narrow beam pulse on the drone to disrupt the
electronics - after the crash it might not be all that salvageable.

At least one US case was thrown out after a homeowner shot down a drone
due to invasion of privacy. That sets precedence.

Not sure about Canada or other locales where shooting a shotgun is
considered damned impolite, wot.
