“The Civil Aviation Safety Authority says it is investigating an incident that involved an athlete in a West Australian triathlon being injured by a drone that was filming the event. Raija Ogden said she was hit on the head by the drone on Sunday when it crashed. But the drone’s owner says she was simply frightened by the machine and fell to the ground. At least one spectator Fairfax Media spoke to backed her claim. Another, who wrote on Facebook that they saw the incident, said that the drone hit Mrs Ogden and appeared to be an accident. ‘I have lacerations on my head from the drone and the ambulance crew took a piece of propeller from my head,’ Mrs Ogden told The West Australian.”
