A brazen attempt to fly jail breaking tools and drugs into Perth Prison failed when the drone being used dropped the package in a nearby garden.
Police swooped on the property in Dundee Road to discover two packages of heroin and a packet of compressed herbal cannabis, along with two cables, two superglue tubes, a screwdriver, an iPhone, four mobile phones and four sim cards.
It is not known where the drone operative was working from.
