Phil Murphy’s office, a representative from Homeland Security joined via Skype to speak alongside state officials, addressing local officials on the issue.
As such sightings continue, New Jersey residents have taken to social media to share images and videos of the drones flying above them.
Another Facebook user, Ernie Oporto, told NBC News that he filmed a drone in Woodbridge near the town’s police station.
On Monday, a group of 20 mayors from Morris County wrote a letter to Murphy expressing “deep concern” and emphasizing the impact on 500,000 county residents and officials.
The letter requested a formal investigation into the flights, clear communication to officials and an implementation of preventative measures to tackle unsafe drone operations.
