Oh guns, if there any problem you can't solve!
It just sounds like a massive overreaction to me.
Someone is out playing with their quad copter and it's pisses him off so he shoots it down. He could have asked them to stop first!
I don't know much about the area but it does seem kinda dangerous to start shooting in a residential area. And answering the door to the guys while armed seems like a threatening thing to do.
It does seem like the guy just really wanted to fire his gun. That being said, I'd be pissed off if a drone was actually snooping at me... although it's more likely that I just flew over his garden.
Are there any pics available of the sunbathing daughter?

He was "defending his property"? From what?
When dealing with drones, there are three issues to be considered:
1 whether civil aviation regulations have been complied with. These will specify minimum and maximum heights in built-up areas and so on.
2 whether trespass occurred. A drone flying over your property doesn't automatically mean its trespassing. If it did, no planes would be able to fly over it (or satellites for that matter). Your property doesn't extend to infinity upwards.
3 whether privacy laws have been breached. You have no privacy protection from someone filming your property (and who or what is on it) from outside your property (whether on land or in the air), unless there is a reasonable expectation of privacy (e.g. someone filming through a bedroom window).
