Did you see the drones above part of North Jersey? County is investigating

Authorities are investigating a drone sighting over North Jersey after multiple reports from residents

Multiple residents in North Jersey reported seeing drones flying over their homes and businesses on Tuesday night. The drones were reportedly flying at low altitudes and were described as being small and black. Some residents reported seeing the drones flying in formation, while others said they were flying erratically.

The Bergen County Sheriff's Office is investigating the drone sightings. The sheriff's office said it has received multiple calls from residents reporting the drones, and that it is working to determine who is operating the drones and what their purpose is.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is also investigating the drone sightings. The FAA said it is working with the sheriff's office to determine if the drones are violating any airspace regulations. In addition, we reached out to FAA for comment and they said:

"The FAA is aware of the reports of drone sightings in North Jersey. We are working with local law enforcement to investigate these reports and determine if any airspace regulations have been violated. The FAA takes the safety of the national airspace very seriously and will take appropriate action if any violations are found."

The drone sightings come at a time of heightened concern about the use of drones for nefarious purposes. In recent years, there have been several reports of drones being used to smuggle drugs, weapons, and other contraband across borders. There have also been reports of drones being used to spy on people and property.

The FAA has taken steps to regulate the use of drones, but it is still unclear how effective these regulations will be in preventing the misuse of drones. The FAA has also been working to develop new technologies to detect and track drones, but these technologies are still in their early stages of development.

The drone sightings in North Jersey are a reminder that the use of drones is a growing concern. It is important for law enforcement and the FAA to work together to ensure that drones are used safely and responsibly.
