PRINCETON, N.J. (AP) — Dozens of drone sightings across New Jersey in recent weeks don’t appear to pose a public safety concern. That’s what Gov. Phil Murphy stressed Monday. The FBI has been investigating reports about mysterious nighttime drone flights that started last month across central Jersey and has asked the public for help. Since then, residents have reported seeing drones in other areas. Murphy noted there were 49 reports of drones on Sunday, mostly in Hunterdon County. The flights initially raised questions partly because they happened near a U.S. military research and manufacturing facility and over President-elect Donald Trump’s golf course in Bedminster.
