Two Amazon delivery drones crashed into a construction crane Wednesday morning in Tolleson, Arizona, landing in two separate parking lots near a business park.
Both crashes happened just minutes apart as the drones were traveling northeast when they struck the crane around two miles from where Amazon launches their drones in Tolleson. No injuries were reported according to local reports.
As a result of the crash, Amazon temporarily paused its drone delivery service in the Tolleson area out of an abundance of caution. The service, which has been up and running in the area since last November, was previously paused in January due to safety upgrades.
