Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has been blocked from quickly advancing a bill that would allow local law enforcement agencies to track aerial drones.

Drone-detecting devices deployed in New Jersey within the past week have shown little to no evidence of anything nefarious or threatening.

U.S. Sen. Chuck Schumer is urging the federal government to deploy advanced drone-tracking technology following weeks of reported drone sightings in parts of New York and New Jersey that have stirred fear and bewilderment.

Mysterious drones have been reported flying over the eastern United States in recent weeks, sparking speculation and concern over who is flying them and why.

It’s unclear if that buzzing sound coming out of New Jersey is drones or something else, but for sure the nighttime sightings are producing tons of talk, a raft of conspiracy theories and craned necks looking skyward.
