Unknown over La Puente, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Object was neon like ranging from red purple and blue. Always a solid color before transitioning to another color. No flashing lights near or on object. Could not determine shape of object. Very briefly the light multiplied into many lights. The only way I can describe that brief moment is it was like there was a diamond in sky and the object flew right behind it. Object traveled in sky very erratically. Object reacted to helicopter flying by. Object traveled very fast in a downward motion. As soon as helicopter passed, the object turned blue again and continued flying erratically.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #109785). 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.

At approximately 1:45 PM Pacific time, I observed a stretched light traveling from north to south ((sic. South to north. Corrected by witness.)) over the city of La Puente. I was pulling out of the parking lot when I first saw the disc-like shape, it did not appear to be traveling at a high speed but as I drove forward, it began to move in the direction of where the sun was. I am assuming because it noticed that I had seen it and it knew it would make it difficult for me to see it next to the sun. I yelled to two people next to me to look up and see it. They said they didn't see anything at first, so I yelled, "Block the sun!" He proceeded to block the sun with his right hand, and with his left hand just gesturing to something floating near the sun on the right top corner. I also had confirmation from a ((deleted--beverage)) delivery man delivering to the corner store where I was exiting. Once we were all looking at it it appeared to fly directly over us and as it passed us it was moving northbound towards the Azuza Canyons. ' The entire thing lasted about four minutes, and as I drove away to try to reach my house, I also told people on the road to look up and they also saw what I saw. By time I made it home it was gone. There was a total of five witnesses. We spoke via telephone with the witness, and he sounded to us to be an eloquent and serious-minded individual. We suspect that he is an excellent witness. PD

4 of us were outside in the backyard having a cigarette, it was already late between 11pm and 12am. My back to was to the sky, but not only did I see the flash of light illuminate everything around me, but I felt the pulse of the light. It pulsed about 5 times before disappearing completely. We are all frozen during the duration of the light, except for one of us who was actually right underneath it. He saw the oval orb of light with a metal lining. He described it being as big as a bus and right over head. White light pulsing, and flashes the same as a camera flash. Since he was exposed directly to it, he then felt a burning sensation throughout his spine the rest of the night, until the next morning. During the course of the light, he was the only able to move, as he ran into the house screaming at us to go inside. We all ignored him, and as soon as the lights disappeared, we all got up in unison and walked out to the yard. The night was deafening silent! About 5 min later, the music of the nearby parties picked up again, and everything was back to normal.
