The FBI is probing evidence collected from a downed Chinese spy balloon, but has not yet recoved much of the electronics the airship is suspected of carrying.
Spy balloon confirms 'pattern of Chinese behavior' that poses threat to NATO members, Stoltenberg says
"So only a very few items. We can probably characterize that into three types of items, one is the balloon or the canopy itself, some wiring, and then some a very small amount of electronics," that official said. Officials said the FBI, which has never before investigated a balloon of this type, first became involved in the probe of the airship on Feb. 1 when it was spotted flying over the United States. FBI agents and officials were at the scene near Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, when the balloon was shot down four days later.
