UK: Gatwick drone latest: Police say it is 'a possibility there was never a drone'

An officer investigating the drone chaos at Gatwick says there is no footage of the device which sparked it and it is "a possibility" there never was one. Asked about speculation there was never such a drone flown over the airport, detective chief superintendent Jason Tingley said: "Of course, that's a possibility. We are working with human beings saying they have seen something.” The incident, which was sparked by a drone sighting Wednesday at around 9pm, left planes stopped from coming to or from the airport. Some 140,000 people were affected as services were delayed or cancelled. However, Tingley also said one of the "working theories" was that a damaged drone found close to the airport in Horley was responsible for causing the disruption. <br/>
