‘UFO’ In D.C. Actually Military Drone – Causes Widespread Panic (VIDEO)

Motorists driving down I-270 and I-495 late Wednesday evening did a double-take, thinking they saw a UFO on a flatbed trailer!

Turns out it was a secret military drone being moved moved from Edwards AFB to a testing ground in Maryland.    The Grumman X-47B unmanned Combat Air System, as it was called by an official responding to the hubub,  has been mistaken for a UFO before; similar incidents happened in Kansas last year.  Residents in rural Cowley County flooded the 911 dispatcher with reports of a "UFO" being hauled on a flatbed trailer through the area.
