President-elect Donald Trump on Monday said that he canceled a trip to his golf course in New Jersey over a rash of recent drone sightings in the state, while calling for more government transparency on the reports.

Since November, locals in New Jersey have reported swarms of drones, prompting alarm from elected officials in both New Jersey and New York. Federal officials have not said where the drones originated, but that they are not a threat to public safety or national security.
