An Italian mayor has suggested using drones to shout profanities at people ignoring stay-at-home rules for the containment of the coronavirus outbreak.

In A Facebook Video Town Mayor of Messina in Sicily says he can not wait for drones to be flying everywhere.

He says the drones will broadcast his voice that will say 'where the f*** are you going? Go back home! Italy's outbreak is concentrated in the north but there is concern that contagion cases could escalate in southern regions like Sicily if people do not respect social distancing.

The country has been under lockdown since March 10. People can leave home only if they cannot work remotely, to buy food, medicines or run other urgent errands.
