Sonic Boom Over Washington As F-16 Fighter Jets Chase Unresponsive Aircraft #shorts |

Two fighter jets scrambled to intercept an unresponsive aircraft, which resulted in a sonic boom that reverberated across Washington on Sunday. The F-16 fighter jets "acted on an unresponsive Cessna 560 Citation V aircraft over Washington, DC, and northern Virginia," according to an announcement from the North American Aerospace Defense Command. Locals may have noticed a sonic boom as a result of the NORAD aircraft's ability to fly at supersonic speeds. In an effort to get the pilot's attention, they also employed flares. Around 3:30 PM, the unresponsive aircraft went down close to Montebello, Virginia, about 170 miles southwest of the capital. Stay connected for more latest updates.
