A YouTube video of a flying drone with a handgun attached is making the rounds of the Internet and opinions range from impressed to irritated.

The video, uploaded by YouTube user Hogwit, has reportedly been linked to 18-year-old Austin Haughwout of Clinton, Conn., according to the Daily Mail. The description on the video notes the drone is a "homemade multirotor with a semiautomatic handgun mounted on it."



The Federal Aviation Administration released a Friday, July 17, statement on the drone-handgun device. "The FAA will investigate the operation of an unmanned aircraft system in a Connecticut park to determine if any Federal Aviation Regulations were violated," Jim Peters of the FAA told Patch via email. "The FAA will also work with its law enforcement partners to determine if there were any violations of criminal statutes."

What do you think about the drone in the above video? Weigh in via the comments section at the end of the article. This isn't the first time Haughwout and drones have created a stir on the Internet.

In May 2014, a woman thought Haughwout was using his drone to take pictures of women on a public beach. She called the police before approaching the teenager and allegedly attacking him at Hammonassett State Park.

The exchange was caught on video, which contains strong language. The username linked to both videos is Hogwit.
