0:00
so what's going on is this some
0:02
contagious Mass hysteria or are people
0:05
really seeing something that our
0:07
government cannot identify our own Rich
0:11
McHugh went out drone hunting in New
0:13
Jersey he did not come back empty-handed
0:16
uh Rich tell us what you
0:19
saw hi Elizabeth well I got to be honest
0:22
here you know when this story first came
0:25
out a few weeks ago as a resident of New
0:27
Jersey as a journalist I didn't pay it
0:30
I thought it would turn out to be a
0:31
bunch of pranksters and this would all
0:33
be over by now uh the experience I had
0:36
last night however changed the way I
0:37
feel about this story completely uh what
0:40
I saw was more sophisticated than I ever
0:45
look 1 2 3 four at least five lights six
0:50
lights I didn't believe what I was
0:52
seeing but what was I seeing we're here
0:55
in Central Jersey we've been looking for
0:57
the past hour I think we've seen about
0:59
40 or 50 these drones in fact there's
1:01
one over my shoulder right
1:04
there one after another after another
1:06
these drones appeared in the night sky
1:09
if you look real close they look like
1:11
fixed Wing aircraft about 8 to 10 ft
1:14
wide colorful white blinking lights that
1:18
is not a plane definitely not an
1:20
airplane but what was
1:22
it hours earlier I was invited to join
1:25
the Ocean County Sheriff
1:28
department they launched their own own
1:30
drones to see if they could intercept
1:31
the mysterious aircraft New Jersey
1:33
residents have been reporting in recent
1:35
weeks the department says these mystery
1:37
drones evade detection because they
1:40
don't give off heat like regular drones
1:43
why do you think that is we don't know
1:45
it's just something that we haven't you
1:46
know it's not something that we've had
1:48
our hands on it's not something that
1:49
we've experienced something they hadn't
1:51
experienced until now one of their
1:54
officers called 911 after seeing 50 of
1:57
them come off the ocean goodis after we
2:00
made contact with that officer that
2:02
there were 50 that came off the ocean 50
2:05
5 Z that was my reaction also there were
2:07
50 that were coming off the ocean and
2:09
this is a sworn officer a sworn officer
2:13
yes we contacted State Police we
2:15
contacted the FBI we contacted the Coast
2:17
Guard at which point the Coast Guard
2:19
went out with their boat and they
2:20
reported seeing 13 following their boat
2:23
and then the Coast Guard also advised
2:25
that they went over him about 300 ft and
2:27
had a wingspan of about 8 ft okay see
2:30
one right here did I see the same thing
2:32
that officer saw I'm still not sure what
2:35
I can show you is this video what I can
2:38
tell you is I've never seen anything
2:39
like it before wow and more than a month
2:42
since these reports started the federal
2:44
government doesn't know what they are
2:46
either what's your message to the White
2:48
House my message is come to the Jersey
2:50
Shore I know it's winter time but uh
2:53
come see what we see and then you know
2:56
maybe have a better appreciation for why
2:58
our residents are concerned
3:02
you know the Ocean County Sheriff that
3:04
drone unit they have an industrial grade
3:06
drone they put it up they were tracking
3:08
one of these drones Elizabeth and they
3:10
said this thing easily evaded them uh
3:12
disappeared out of thin air um so you
3:15
know to me it's if this is not our
3:17
military then it's then it's even more
3:19
scary and we need we need answers Frank
