Initial Fox News report:
“FAA issued a notice to airmen closing air space in the northern part of lake Michigan.. looks like this is out of an abundance of caution but there is an airborne refueling tanker from the U.S. Military and appears that fighter jets are in route“ pic.twitter.com/7iqT2ikXsY

Rep. Matt Rosendale (R-MT) posted that the Montana sighting Saturday night is still being investigated, “I am in constant communication with NORCOM and they have just advised me that they have confidence there IS an object and it WAS NOT an anomaly. I am waiting now to receive visual confirmation. Our nation’s security is my priority.”
