Students at a Virginia school are buzzing after a boy employed the use of a U.S. Customs and Border Protection helicopter to ask a female classmate to a dance. Victoria Burress, 17, said her friend, whose father works as a senior official in air operations at the agency, had the helicopter fly low over the grounds at Patriot High School in Nokesville shortly after school ended Wednesday and parachuted a stuffed bulldog down to the football field with a note attached asking her to the Fall Fest dance. CBP officials said an investigation has been opened over the incident. They said the pilot “has been relieved and reassigned to administrative duties pending completion of the review.” A Prince William County Public Schools spokeswoman said the school’s principal was made aware of the stunt ahead of time and gave approval.
