EDGEWATER: Residents are alarmed by a wave of mysterious drone sightings in the skies over New Jersey, and US officials are frantically trying to find explanations.
The fearful skygazing and wild speculation have been heightened by breathless local news stories, which alternate tense, gloomy social media footage with angry residents demanding action.
The characteristic whirling rotors and blinking lights of massive unmanned aerial vehicles have been visible throughout the state west of New York for weeks.
However, investigators, political officials, and military leaders have failed to provide an explanation for the recurrent UFO phenomenon.
The reports were deemed “crazy” by Sam Lugo, 23, who works at the Club Studio gym in Bergen County, New Jersey, one of the areas of the state where numerous drone sightings have occurred.
