Ocean County Sheriff Says 50 Mysterious Drones Spotted Coming Off the Ocean — Claims ‘They Vanished Into Thin Air’ After Outrunning the Coast Guard and an ‘Industrial-Grade’ Drone

An eerie and unexplained phenomenon has gripped the Jersey Shore. Over the past several weeks, mysterious drones have been spotted in increasing numbers.

The unexplained aerial vehicles reportedly evaded detection, outran Coast Guard boats, and even disappeared into thin air after being pursued by industrial-grade drones launched by law enforcement.

In recent weeks, reports of fleets of mysterious drones, described as fixed-wing aircraft with 8-to-10-foot wingspans and blinking lights, have flooded local authorities, according to NewsNation reporter Rich McHugh.

Rich McHugh:
“I got to be honest here. When this story first came out a few weeks ago, as a resident of New Jersey and as a journalist, I didn’t pay it much credence. I thought it would turn out to be a bunch of pranksters, and this would all be over by now. The experience I had last night, however, changed how I feel about this story completely. What I saw was more sophisticated than I ever imagined,” McHugh said.

We’ve been looking for the past hour. I think we’ve seen about 40 or 50 of these drones. In fact, there’s one over my shoulder right there.

One after another, these drones appeared in the night sky. If you look closely, they look like fixed-wing aircraft, about 8 to 10 feet wide, with colorful, white blinking lights.

Hours earlier, I was invited to join the Ocean County Sheriff’s Department. They launched their own drones to see if they could intercept the mysterious aircraft New Jersey residents have been reporting in recent weeks. The department says these mystery drones evade detection because they don’t give off heat like regular drones”
