Mystery as radioactive shipment goes missing in New Jersey amid drone invasion Radioactive material went missing in New Jersey earlier this month, fueling conspiracy theories that it could be linked to the mysterious drone sightings.
The US Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) issued an alert for the missing shipment deemed 'less than a Category 3,' meaning it could cause permanent injury if mishandled.
A piece of medical equipment used for cancer scans was shipped from the Nazha Cancer Center in Newfield on December 2 for disposal, but the 'shipping container arrived at its destination damaged and empty.'.
But experts have suggested that malicious actors would likely use more potent materials that what was lost in New Jersey for such a feat.
But officials have not confirmed the claims] Category 3 is the highest level of radioactive material.
