We suspect a hoax. Time may be wrong. Witness elects to remain totally anonmyous. PD

Amsterdam, NY

She had called me over and I had saw what didn't look like a star nor doesn't sound/look like any air craft or tot craft I have seen. It was hovering in one area. No noise coming from it. It flashed yellow, red, green, and a possible orange like color of lights. The green was mainly shown on the sides from my point of view. Where I was in my location, the width was about 1cm and the height was about half a centimeter. It started to fly away north of my direction. As it did, a quiet humming sound came directly from it. I don't know what I have saw. But it is truly my first time witnessing and unknown flying object, a UFO. ((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) I am sorry, I mean January 28, 2016. Again, sorry for the mix up Sent from my iPhone ((END ADDENDUM))
