Mysterious drone sightings continue across New Jersey, with videos from local residents posted to social media as state and federal officials investigate their origin.
These sightings have been reported near a Hunterdon County reservoir in the northern part of the state, as well as further south in Monmouth and Ocean counties and into Philadelphia-area townships like Cherry Hill and Evesham.
Officials have continued to state that the drones do not pose any known threat to public safety. Local, state and federal law enforcement agencies are working in coordination to investigate the sightings.
In a video from Bergen County, New Jersey, lights that appear to come from a mysterious drone appear to fly at a low altitude.
These have become an issue in the state, so much so that last month the Federal Aviation Administration issued a temporary flight restriction prohibiting drone flights over the Trump National Golf Club Bedminster and the Picatinny Arsenal military research and manufacturing facility in Morris County.
The move came "at the request of federal security partners," the FAA said.
What to do if you see drones in New Jersey
The FBI asks that anyone who sees the drones call 1-800-225-5324 or submit tips and video footage at www.tips.fbi.gov.
