UFO Sighting in DC? Military Drone Mistaken For 'UFO' Along DC Highways



Jun 14, 2012 by
WASHINGTON -- Residents in the Washington, D.C., area were buzzing with speculation after pictures popped up online showing a "UFO" in transport along the Capitol Beltway. The sighting took place around 11:00pm Wednesday when drivers first saw the craft being hauled on a flatbed truck on I-270, and then again down I-495.

An official at Northrop Grumman confirmed to WTTG-TV on Thursday that the craft was actually an X-47B Unmanned Combat Air System. They said the drone was being transported from Edwards Air Force Base in California to the Naval Air Station Patuxent River in Maryland for testing.

It was not the first time this style of aircraft had been mistaken for a UFO while being transported. Last year, residents of Cowley County, Kansas made a similar mistake

Sheeple



The Black Sheep tries to warn its friends with the truth it has seen, unfortunately herd mentality kicks in for the Sheeple, and they run in fear from the black sheep and keep to the safety of their flock.

Having tried to no avail to awaken his peers, the Black Sheep have no other choice but to unite with each other and escape the impending doom.

What color Sheep are you?
