Drones are now making landfall as the Biden regime continues to dismiss concerns regarding potential threats.
The Gateway Pundit on Friday reported that a supposed drone crash on Thursday night sparked a massive search-and-rescue operation in Hillsborough Township. But after nearly 16 hours of searching, officials came up empty-handed, and the operation was called off around noon on Friday.
But that same night, a drone fell out of the sky and crashed into a New Jersey homeowner’s backyard. The news sparked so much alarm that the town’s mayor drove to the scene to examine the site himself.
The New York Post reported that the aircraft fell in a residential area of Pequannock Township in Morris County at roughly 8:45 p.m. Thursday.
The Pequannock Police Department, though, told the Post that they think the drone was not a military or commercial drone but rather more like a “hobby or toy drone.” However, this information has not yet been corroborated.
The Post notes that this news comes as New Jersey police officers warn of possible “copycats” trying to take advantage of America’s panic.
“What we think is it started as some sort of Picatinny Arsenal base surveillance drill or operation but once it exploded online, this became a copycat situation,” one New Jersey police chief speculated.
When The Post arrived at the crash site, the resident whose backyard was ‘victimized’ declined to comment.
As Jim Hoft previously reported, several mysterious drones were spotted flying over New Jersey last week. The drones were spotted in at least 12 counties, prompting mayors to contact the governor and demand answers.
TGP has also noted that the Biden regime has refused to come clean on the drones’ origins. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby categorically denied any confirmed incursions, dismissing over 3,000 reports of “car-sized drones” as mistaken sightings of helicopters or airplanes.
Kirby’s assurances, however, directly contradict statements from military officials at New Jersey’s Picatinny Arsenal and Naval Weapons Station Earle, both of which have confirmed unauthorized drone breaches in recent weeks.
The Regime has also laughed off seemingly credible reports alleging that the drones could be the work of a foreign adversary.
The drone sightings are not just limited to New Jersey, either. Former Maryland Governor Larry Hogan revealed on Friday that he had personally witnessed several drones over his residence in recent days.
There have also been sightings over U.S. Military bases.
