DENVER (KDVR) -- After a drone worth as much as $100,000 was allegedly stolen out of a truck at a client's home in Denver, the perpetrators reportedly agreed to return it.
The manufacturer of the drone, Voliro, a robotics company headquartered in Switzerland, said the drone was allegedly stolen from the back of a truck at its client's home in the North Park Hill neighborhood.
The drone was in the truck at the CEO of Taylor Made Inspections' home on Friday night before it was reported stolen on Saturday morning. A spokesperson for Voliro said the drone was packaged in large Pelican cases and had a unit cost between $50,000 to $100,000.

While the drone comes with a high price tag, a Voliro spokesperson said it's worthless to non-professionals as it's used for industrial inspections and securing critical infrastructure.
They offered $5,000 for the return of the drone, along with a $10,000 donation to charity if it was returned. Voliro said the companies "have pledged to make a donation to a local nonprofit dedicated to combating homelessness in Denver. This initiative aims to turn a personal loss into an opportunity to support the community."
FOX31 posted about the missing drone on Tuesday, and on Wednesday morning, Voliro said the perpetrators agreed to return the drone after being intimidated by the media coverage and the value of the product.
Voliro said the perpetrators agreed to return the drone for no reward, and the company is still going to give a charity contribution.
The Denver Police Department was initially contacted about the stolen drone on Saturday morning, but for charges to be filed, the department said the victim has to agree to file charges, then the District Attorney’s Office would make a final determination on whether charges are filed based on the findings of the case.
