Trump on Keeping Chinese Students in U.S. Schools: ‘I Don’t Want Anything in Return’

On Aug. 11, 2021, U.S. Customs and Border Protection admitted Fengyun Shi to the United States at the San Francisco International Airport as an agricultural engineering graduate student at the University of Minnesota.

Less than three years later, the FBI arrested Shi for prohibited operation of an unmanned aircraft system, violation of national defense airspace, and photography of defense installations after an investigation revealed Shi utilized a commercial drone to take photographs of U.S. naval bases in the Norfolk, Virginia, area.
