We’ve all seen those shots at the start of local news broadcasts, with a camera showing what’s happening in the nearest city.

Well, people in Milwaukee had a shock when that footage revealed strange lights in the sky, leading the anchors to speculate as to what they might be.

Fox News sent out a team of reporters to investigate, and they reckon it was just a flock of seagulls cavorting in the sky.

That doesn’t explain the strange movements and light trail, but that could just be due to the way the camera was set up. Either way, people were freaking out over their cornflakes.
