Sheriff's Office Ends Search For 'Command Vehicle' Amid Drone Sightings
PHILLIPS COUNTY, Colo. (CBS4) - The Phillips County Sheriff's Office says the search for a "command vehicle" has been called off. They say the search "is no longer pertinent or relevant."
The vehicle was believed to be involved with ongoing drone sightings on Colorado's Eastern Plains.
