Authorities say an officer detected a drone operating close to Logan International Airport at around 4:30 p.m. and was able to identify the operators' position on Long Island.

According to police, they located three people inside the decommissioned Long Island Health Campus.

When attempting to make contact, the people fled on foot, followed by two of the three people being arrested.

A drone was discovered inside Duffy's backpack, police say.

Authorities continue to search for the third suspect.

Duffy and Folcik are scheduled to be arraigned in Dorchester District Court. It wasn't immediately clear if they had obtained attorneys.
