There is a rumour that several years ago some tools were dropped on purpose. Because astronaut did not liked to stay on orbit, and he/she wanted to return to Earth ahead of schedule.

Are you sure that's not a half-remembered version of Russian propaganda[1], where they tried to blame NASA Astronaut Serena Auñón-Chancellor with drilling holes into a Russian spacecraft, ostensibly so she could get sent back to earth early for medical treatment? They were trying at the time to deflect blame for what were clearly Russian manufacturing defects (especially in hindsight, given the number of defects and accidents Roscosmos have been responsible for lately). 1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serena_Au%C3%B1%C3%B3n-Chancellor#Russian_ISS_accusations https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serena_Au%C3%B1%C3%B3n-Chancel...
