After weeks of concern over drones flying over New York and New Jersey, Sen. Chuck Schumer is calling for better drone-tracking technology to identify and stop them. The New York Democrat urged the Department of Homeland Security to deploy technology that tracks drones back to their landing spots.
Schumer’s request follows public frustration over the lack of answers about the drone operators and the government’s failure to stop them.
U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas said agencies have the authority to incapacitate drones but need expanded powers. New York Gov. Kathy Hochul announced federal officials are sending a drone detection system to aid investigations.
