Dec 4, 2024, 02:00 AM

The FBI has launched an investigation into a series of mysterious drone sightings over New Jersey, particularly near President Donald Trump's Bedminster golf course and the Picatinny Arsenal army base in Morris and Somerset Counties. Residents have reported seeing large, car-sized drones flying in formation, often at night, for several weeks. These sightings have raised security concerns, prompting the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to issue flight restrictions over the area. The FBI is seeking public assistance to gather photos, videos, and other information about these drones, which have been described as flying in a V formation and resembling manta rays. The investigation aims to determine the origin and purpose of these drones, with speculation ranging from national security testing to foreign espionage.
