this FBI and Department of Homeland Security expressed on saturday ongoing investigation Reported Drone Sightings Over New Jersey found that “many reported drone sightings were actually manned aircraft mistaken for drones.”
The investigation has not found any evidence that the drones found were involved in illegal activity or malicious behavior, and the U.S. Coast Guard has found no evidence of foreign involvement offshore.
“At this time, we have found no basis to believe that these drones were involved in any criminal activity, present any national security threat, represent any specific public safety threat, or represent a malicious foreign actor,” DHS officials said.
