A US sheriff recounted his efforts to track the swarm of mystery drones hovering over his county, only to find that they “easily” evaded his attempts, the New York Post reported.
Sheriff Michael Mastronardy of Ocean County explained that his office deployed an “industrial grade” drone on Thursday in an effort to follow one of the 50 unmanned aerial vehicles spotted by a local officer “coming off the ocean.”
The officer quickly notified state police, the FBI, and the US Coast Guard, leading to a report from Coast Guard officials of 13 drones with eight-foot wingspans trailing one of their vessels.
Sheriff Mastronardy shared with News Nation reporter Rich McHugh that these unusual drones, which don’t emit heat like standard models, were able to swiftly evade capture.
Talking about the mysterious objects, McHugh said, “If this is not our military, then it’s even more scary.” “These things look like they are fixed-wing and they have multiple lights. I’m not really sure how to process what I saw last night. Both the photographer and I were kind of stunned,” he added.
Dozens of unidentified drones were spotted flying over New Jersey, including a recent sighting of more than 50 drones emerging from the Atlantic Ocean. The unexplained incidents left both the public and law enforcement puzzled, sparking calls for immediate action from state and federal authorities.
The Ocean County sheriff’s department is investigating the drones, which are described as fixed-wing aircraft with multiple lights and wingspans between 8 to 10 feet. These drones prove difficult to track, as they don’t emit heat like typical drones, hindering detection efforts.
