Patrick Spina IV, 45, of Absecon, was arrested at his business in Galloway on Friday after Absecon police and other law enforcement agencies tracked the drone back to Comfort Solutions Heating and Cooling, officials said. An investigation revealed the colored material is sea dye, a lifesaving marker used during potential water rescues. It contains a fluorescent green dye that spreads over the surface of the water to assist a rescue pilot, according to Presto Dyechem, a Philadelphia company that manufactures the product. The dye typically is contained in small packet that can be placed in a life vest pocket, the company said.
