US shoots down "high-altitude object" over Alaska
- President Joe Biden ordered the military to down what the White House described as a “high-altitude object” hovering over Alaska on Friday. It was shot down near the Canadian border on water that is frozen in the Arctic Ocean, the White House said.
- The object, flying at an altitude of 40,000 feet and the "size of a small car," came to the government's attention last evening, and “posed a reasonable threat to the safety of civilian flight," a White House official said.
