Seattle police are investigating a crash that saw a drone collide with the city's giant ferris wheel and land on the deck of a nearby restaurant.

The drone ricocheted off the 175-foot tall Seattle Great Wheel around 4:45 p.m. and crashed onto a plastic table on the patio of a neighboring restaurant, according to Seattle's Kiro TV. No injuries were reported, but the drone "punched a hole in the table and sent pieces of plastic flying," the report notes.

"Anything that comes from that height, with that kind of weight, is going to do some damage," security manager Wayman Earls, who saw the crash, told Kiro TV. Fortunately, the restaurant was already closed for winter, or the situation could have been much worse.

Police arrived on the scene and confiscated the drone — said to be a $1,300 DJI Phantom — but were unable to locate its operator.

This isn't the first time a drone has caused trouble in downtown Seattle. This summer, one went haywire during the city's Pride Parade, crashing into a building before striking a 25-year-old woman in the head, according to The Seattle Times. The operator of that drone was charged with reckless endangerment. A drone also reportedly hit the city's iconic Space Needle last year, though it didn't do any damage.

Those purchasing drone will soon be required to register it with the government. Regulators still need to iron out the details of the registration system, though they plan to establish it before the end of the year.
