Unsettling Drone Sightings in New Jersey: Rumors Abound
The skies over New Jersey have become a topic of concern for residents, with thousands of people reporting sightings of drones or airborne vehicles. The phenomenon has been ongoing for several weeks, with many speculating about the purpose and origin of these mysterious objects.
Flocking to the Skies
Kyle Breese, a 36-year-old insurance worker from Ocean Township, was one of the first to report seeing the drones. He described them as “unmistakable floating objects” with red and white lights hovering in the sky. His wife and mother also witnessed the same phenomenon, fueling speculation about the nature of these sightings.
“I think they’re looking for something,” said Breese’s mother, Luann, a 68-year-old resident of Ocean Township. “My concern is that we have ammunition bases here in New Jersey.” Her concerns are shared by many others who believe that the drones may be connected to military activities or even extraterrestrial life.
Rumors and Theories
Theories abound about the purpose and origin of the drones. Some believe they are connected to a Springsteen biopic shooting on location, while others speculate that they may be part of a government experiment or even a movie production. One man claimed to have heard that the drones were linked to al-Qaeda, but this theory remains unsubstantiated.
Drones in Coastal Towns
Coastal towns like Asbury Park are particularly affected by the sightings, with many residents reporting seeing the drones hovering over the ocean. Garrett Openshaw, a 24-year-old maintenance worker at the Asbury Hotel, described seeing at least 12 sedan-sized drones flying in unison on a cold night in early December.
“It’s hard to tell if they’re just shooting a movie or something else,” said Collin Lynch, a 26-year-old food and beverage supervisor at the hotel. “There’s always something going on in this town.”
Debates and Speculation
Asbury Park residents are abuzz with rumors and theories about the drones. Some believe that they may be connected to UFOs or government secrets, while others speculate about celebrity sightings in town.
At Frank’s Deli, a popular diner and recent shooting location for the Springsteen biopic, staff members have been excitedly discussing the theories behind the sightings. “They’ve been having, like, drone watch-parties out on Long Beach Island,” said Danielle Coyle, a server at the diner.
Concerns and Questions
While some residents are fascinated by the drones, others are concerned about their presence in the skies over New Jersey. Cassie Miller, a 26-year-old resident of Monroe, expressed her concerns about the drones’ potential connection to military activities or other sinister purposes.
“It’s so hard to know now,” she said. “Videos of them shooting at stuff and I’m like, ‘Is that fake or is that really real?’ It’s so easy to spoof stuff now.”
For Breese, the lurking lights in the sky are not only unsettling but also disconcerting. “I have kids, so it’s weird,” he said. “Are they filming? Or is it some creep with a camera?”
As the debate continues, one thing is clear: the people of New Jersey want answers about these mysterious drones hovering in their skies.
