A drone fell out of the sky and crashed into a New Jersey homeowner’s backyard Thursday night — prompting the town’s mayor to even drive to the scene to survey the site himself.
The aircraft smashed down in a residential area of Pequannock Township in Morris County around 8:45 p.m. Thursday, according to police and dispatch audio.
Officials determined the craft was “a hobby or toy type of drone” and “not a large commercial or military grade drone,” the Pequannock Police Department told The Post
It comes on the heels of New Jersey cops warning of possible “copycats.”
“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 Garden State police chief theorized.

Copycats of what? All the other hobbyist flying drones? LOL.
37 days until we are rid of this vile Administration, with its scumbos like Mayorkas, Wray, Jake Sullivan and the now less than ambulatory Nancy Pelosi. Think of the damage they have done here.
My drone is as big as a bus. Will I need a permit for that?
That's my theory.
What is more noticeable, a drone flying at night with flashing lights or a drone in the daytime while everyone is too busy scurrying around doing their daily activities to notice them?
The reason they're not flying in the daytime is because the hobbyists are either in school or working their day jobs.........
That's my thought and I'm sticking to it.
“Officials...” 🧐🤨
The “hobbyist” regulation requires the drone to remain in the physical sightline of the operator on the ground.
And it can’t get to be the size of a dining room table or small car like the ones being reported.
This story includes a generous dollop of gaslighting.
Surely there must be some amateur, hobbyist or professional videographers who see the opportunity to test their night vision capabilities.

Exactly - wouldn’t put it past the government to do some false flag drone crashing so people think it’s all just people playing around - meanwhile, there’s stories about an Iranian drone ship out there....

Good thinking. And it’s really sad that we have to consider such a thing. It’s not us being paranoid. It’s that our lying government has completely destroyed its reputation.
and the now less than ambulatory Nancy Pelosi
She’s not going anywhere...she was re-elected.
She will be a back bencher, thank God...but we will still have her drunken babble breathlessly reported by MSM buttlickers.

“Officials” might be wrong on this one.
No pictures of the crashed drone?
Someone must have winged it. Gun control.
Or they crashed a hobby one to try to let people believe that’s what they are.
The government saying they can’t do anything about the ones over new jersey is a lie. A drone flying into area 51 would be shot down in 3 seconds. This is a government sponsered spy program.
July 8. 1948
I was in the 3rd grade just toddling along.
Time keeps moving along be it good or bad.
What did the mayor think he’d accomplish driving out there besides a photo op?
No.
She is out of action forever
