Peter T. Akemann, one of the founders of video game developer Treyarch, admitted to operating a drone that crashed into a Canadian Super Scooper firefighting aircraft during the recent catastrophic and persisting wildfires in Los Angeles.
A risky action taken by Akemann, who is currently the CEO of The Entertainment Workshop and formerly from Skydance Interactive, caused an expensive aircraft to be grounded for repairs at a critical time. This action led to an FBI investigation into his actions (thanks to Game Developer). As a result, he has managed to avoid a likely year in prison but will have to pay over $65,000 for the damages and perform 150 hours of community service, possibly involving physically demanding tasks. The statement from Akemann’s legal team expressed his deep regret for the incident.
