A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center. Witness text is preserved verbatim, including its spelling; nothing is edited beyond formatting.
Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.

Finally after about 20-30 seconds of amazement, the lights did a quick fade to sky. my friend's house is on tucker road and the lights appeared to be somewhere over fayetteville.

I was thinking they were stars possibly, but there wasn't any other stars in the sky. So I got my phone out to snap a picture. I had trouble getting focused while I was driving and while I was in the process of trying to get focused, the bottom light started to move rapidly away from triangle shape it was positioned in. Then after it moved pretty far across the sky, I vanished in the air.
