Fort Drum (WSYR-TV) - A search is underway at Fort Drum, because shortly
after 1 PM today, the Rome Air Force Research Lab lost contact with an
unmanned aerial vehicle flying over the base.
A Fort Drum spokesperson says fort personnel are searching the base˘s
ranges along the aircraft˘s flight path.
The aircraft is six feet wide.
Fort Drum asks that if the aircraft has left Fort Drum property, and you
spot it, call 315-772-7152.
Finders keepers!
