What was it doing there? Probably flying a route that was pre-coordinated and deconflicted with local aviation authorities.

The main rotor moves at 725fps or close to 500mph. Depending on air speed that can put it close to the speed of sound. Hitting a 5lb object at that speed can cause serious damage to pretty much anything.

The density of a drone is much more then a bird. These are not light and malleable.
