The U.S. military shot down another suspicious object on Sunday, marking the fourth object to be shot down by U.S. forces over North America in just over a week. The latest high-altitude object was shot down over Lake Huron, officials said.
U.S. forces downed the object Sunday afternoon after the Federal Aviation Administration issued a "national defense airspace" temporary flight restriction Sunday afternoon over part of Lake Michigan. The restriction was removed after several hours.
"US military has decommissioned another ‘object’ over Lake Huron," Michigan Rep. Jack Bergman (R) tweeted Sunday. "I appreciate the decisive action by our fighter pilots. The American people deserve far more answers than we have."
Before Sunday the United States downed three objects within a week that were believed to be surveillance balloons.
