Two men were seen landing near Ground Zero with parachutes in the middle of the night on Monday. The NYPD is investigating and looking for these men who were wearing all black and entered the area by air around 3 a.m. Someone spotted them and called 911. Police have obtained video surveillance footage but so far, they haven't found the mystery parachuters.
The men landed about two blocks away from each other on West Street. It's unknown if they jumped off a building or out of an airplane. They were seen about 40 stories up when the witness called 911.
It is unknown whether or not these men are a security threat but many can't help but think of what could happen if these men were training for some kind of attack. The FAA is involved and the NYPD is looking over all of the evidence that they have to try and solve this strange mystery.
