A Nottingham man is to appear in court on suspicion of flying a drone over several famous UK sights, police say.
Nigel Wilson, 42, has been accused of 17 breaches of the Air Navigation Order, Scotland Yard said.
He is suspected of failing to maintain direct, unaided and visual contact with a drone which was flown over the Palace of Westminster, the Shard and the Queen Victoria Memorial at Buckingham Palace.
He is also accused of flying a "small unmanned surveillance aircraft" over packed football stadiums without permission from the Civil Aviation Authority.
Over a period of just 3 months he's charged with flying the drone at eight football grounds including Liverpool's Anfield, and Arsenal's Emirates Stadium.
He has been summoned to appear before Westminster Magistrates Court on 16th April.
The allegations follow a string of unexplained drone sightings over sensitive locations in France, including top tourist spots and nuclear facilities.
Two weeks ago, a dozen more drones were spotted in Paris, bringing the total number of suspicious incidents to 60.
The sightings were made near the River Seine, the Place de la Concorde, the Invalides military museum and the Paris ring road.
It is unclear whether the spate of French drone flights is the work of pranksters, tourists or something more malicious.
Last December the British Airline Pilots Association (BALPA) warned that due to the vast increase in drone use, it was only a matter of time before a major accident with a passenger jet in the skies above Britain.
