A bizarre incident occurred during a Green Day concert at Comerica Park on Wednesday night when a drone forced the band off the stage. The unexpected interruption caused a brief pause in the performance, but the band was able to resume their show after the situation was resolved.
The Drone Intrusion
The drone intrusion happened during the second chorus of Green Day's hit single "Longview." The band members were immediately escorted off the stage, and a message appeared on the video screens informing the audience of a show pause. After a brief delay, Green Day returned to the stage and continued their performance.
The Aftermath
Following the incident, Detroit police apprehended the individual who flew the drone into the stadium. The suspect is currently being detained pending further investigation.
Green Day addressed the incident on social media, apologizing for the delay and assuring fans that the situation was resolved quickly. The band was able to complete their concert without further interruption.
AirGuard: A Proactive Solution
AirGuard's advanced drone detection and tracking technology could have prevented this incident from happening. Our solution offers several key features that would have enabled security teams to identify and intercept the drone before it entered the stadium:
