A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was driving and saw a hazey white boomarang-shaped object flying with sun glaring off it sometimes. It was standing tall while flying. It had a little boomerang shape in it and triangle to it. The top of the boomarang was a little bit longer than the bottom. It sorta was featureless. It kinda reminded me of an Angelfish with a longer fin on top than the bottom but had a triangle body with no tail. The top fin was slightly in a diffent angle from the smaller bottom fin. The hazey look to it made it look blurry. I was driving on Cicero looking on the side of Best Buy towards Midway Airport, when I noticed it. I got my camera ready and stuck my arm out when I was parked at a red light. It disappeared right before the second I took the picture like it knew to disappear before I would of got a picture of it. I made a drawing of it on my Wii U art program and posted it on Facebook. I have the photo I took on my cellphone showing a Best Buy Sign right before it disappeared. It look to be as big as a small passenger plane but was super taller like an angelfish. It was almost like watching if like a angelfish if it was flying in the sky but an angelfish wouldn't have sun glaring off it sometime. I was thinking it was an experimental aircraft, at first, until it disappeared. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

This all began on Monday night, my roommate and I decided to take a LDS (Lake Shore Drive is an expressway that runs alongside the shoreline of Lake Michigan through the city of CHICAGO) (GREAT FOR SIGHTSEEING) Anyways we were making our way back home, we live in the southwest suburbs (BURBANK). While on the highway I pointed out to my roommate something too bright to be a star, she actually pulled over to see it for herself (she agreed that it seemed to bright and big for it to be a star). I snapped one picture of it & We made our ways home. Oddly enough the image I capture gave me the chills. (It seem to be a round object). I payed it no attention and brushed it off. Now fast forward to today Wednesday 04/15/2020, I woke up at 5:00am with pain on my left abdominal hip. My morning routine is consistent except for today. Today I woke up way earlier, my routine didn't change I still got out of bed and went into the shower, among undressing I noticed what seems to be like a marking of a triangle on my hip. I ran to my room I didn't have anything on my bed that could have caused it, and no this wasn't on me before I went to bed. I'm having a hard time comprehending what could have caused it since I have no object shaped the size of the marking.
