HARRISON, NEW JERSEY (RFD News) — New details have emerged on a number of ag drones stolen out of New Jersey.
Police now say they’ve been recovered after being found in a storage facility during a routine inspection.
In a post to ‘X’, Homeland Security confirmed the 15 drones were stolen last month from a logistics company.
Each drone can spray up to 40 gallons of liquid chemicals over a 15-acre plot, raising concerns about how they could potentially be used in a terror attack.
The drones are valued at more than $750,000.
