A Russian spy plane reportedly flew over Chicago on Aug. 13 at a high altitude, according to a local news report.

The plane, a Tupolev jet, departed from Dayton, Ohio, and went to Great Falls, Montana, as part of the Treaty on Open Skies program, WGN-TV reported. The treaty allows nations to carry out pre-arranged surveillance flights over each other’s territory.
