The 40-year-old suspect, Lucy Grace Nelson, was arrested on Monday after the Loveland Police Department launched an “extensive investigation” following a series of vandaIizations at the dealership in Loveland, Colorado.
Given the safety record, you could probably drive by and throw a ballpeen hammer at them

There are plenty of low tech solutions to some problems.
Those are pretty damn traceable. There are cameras everywhere. Even if you manage to burn a building down, the buildings next door and every building for blocks around have cameras. Plate reader cameras are everywhere. Etc. It is almost impossible to move through a city in a vehicle in a way that cannot be traced. If you cover your license plate, then you have to worry about being pulled over just for that. And even if you making your plate invisible, you still have to worry about your face being visible through the windscreen. Hell, they might be able to just track your vehicle, one camera to the next, all the way back to your front door. You could try doing this on foot or bicycle, but look at how well that worked for Luigi.
Compare that to a drone. You go for a hike into the woods in a city park or reserve, in a city hours from where you live. In your backpack, you have the drone. You carry the drone to a remote clearing in the woods that is rarely if ever visited. You leave the drone in the clearing. Three days later at 2 in the morning, at a time you conveniently have an air-tight alibi, the drone’s timer activates, it flies upward, and goes on its mission. In the unlikely event that the drone is discovered before it launches, have a self-destruct mechanism built it. Once placed, have it enter an “armed” state. If the drone is moved or picked up by someone, have it audibly broadcast a warning. Literally “this drone will self destruct in 20 seconds.” Then it counts down and sets off the incendiary, immolating itself.
Hell, if you were clever enough, you might even manage to launch such a drone from hundreds of miles away. Have it travel from one remote rooftop to another. Launch it from a different state. Have it fly to different remote locations or rooftops, flying as far as it can on each hop. Then land and charge its batteries for the next leg.
These things will make very terrifying weapons. They allow someone to commit an act of destruction with far far less traceability than any other method.
