Likely saved the guy.
but likely not the purpose of this action
So you think they thought it would be like a lizard dropping it's tail? The drone would get distracted?
I assume they believe it makes them go faster? I have seen videos where they drop bodies out of a truck, apparently in an attempt to get lighter and therefore faster. It's not particularly smart, but other people have just offed themselves after seeing a drone nearby. So there is a spectrum of reactions.
