“We don’t who it belongs to, but it appears to be some sort of medivac,” Lt Douglas Moore said tonight. “It flew over Waldwick, hoveredover some homes and fled the area.”

Speculation that authorities were hunting a fugitive was false, Moore said.

“We do not have a fugitive on the loose,” he said.

“They went right over my house,” Moore told CLIFFVIEW PILOT. “They circled for awhile and were gone.

“One possible thought is that there’s an air show in West Milford this weekend. Maybe it had something to do with that.

“We’re making calls.”
