Around 7 p.m., at Center Street in Folly Beach, the drone show started. Three minutes into the performance, spectators started shouting at local authorities that drones were falling from the sky. The event lasted 30 seconds before all drones started a “controlled descent” to a designated landing zone, Gilreath said.
