Administration spokesman Jim Peters says the pilot flew over Westwood High
School and its athletic fields around 6 p.m. Wednesday night. Peters told The
Record newspaper that children were on the field as the pilot dropped his soggy
cargo, littering the area. There were no reports of injuries. Peters says the Cessna
172S made three passes before landing at an airport in nearby Caldwell. The
pilot, whose name was not released, was briefly taken into custody. Peters says
the man may face federal charges of reckless operation of an aircraft and
dropping objects from a plane without authorization.
