Witness account

Narrative

My friend just recorded this in Katy, TX, August 6th, 2026, around 3:42pm. It appears to be a drone of some kind but the other object in the video appears to hover upwards to meet with the drone. I don’t see any propellers on it or any signs of propulsion. Just curious if anyone knows if this is a known type of drone with a deployable object. submitted by /u/Interesting-Mud-9994
