NJ gov says feds have authority to shoot down drones, 'wouldn't be opposed’ to them playing ‘more robust role'

New Jersey's governor says the feds have the authority to shoot down drones flying over his state and that he "wouldn't be opposed" to them playing a "more robust role."

When the interviewer suggested whether one of the drones could be shot down so officials could get a closer look, Murphy said: "The feds have that authority, and I'd like to see them play a more robust role. I wouldn't be opposed to that. Let me put it that way."  Greg Norman is a reporter at Fox News Digital.

"I want folks out there to know -- listen, you're frustrated. So are we. But... we're going to stay at it, I promise you, this is our top priority. But based on everything we know, we don't see any evidence of a risk to public safety. And clearly, and that's largely based on the feds input. If that changes, we will shout it from the mountaintop," Murphy also said.
