New Jersey’s Jackson Township.Dozens of people expressed alarm Thursday night after a drone was seen hovering low over Jackson Township.
Witnesses reported seeing an enigmatic object traveling northwest over the township from an apparent origin point to the east, probably over the ocean, at approximately 9:00 p.m. As the item moved toward Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst (MDL), residents of Jackson saw it many times.
The flight path was initially thought to be that of a drone, but it turned out to be in line with typical military aircraft patterns. Later, video footage dispelled suspicions of unidentified or illegal drone activities by confirming the object was a military freight plane.
Although this specific case seems unrelated, the incidence coincides with increased awareness of drones in the area, including reports of drones fired from the ocean along the Jersey Shore.
