Diamond over Cudahy, WI

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

The report, as filed

At first I thought it was a star, but then it started to move around in weird ways. I know that no aircraft could possibly maneuver. Then I saw a diamond shaped orange light pattern with four dots like it was giving off a signal. Few moments later in a straight diagonal line flashing lights really fast of of the colors red green orange blue and white. Then it went back to the orange diamond pattern for a few minutes then took off following that same pattern to the right then down then left and straight up out of sight. Possible sighting of Venus, or a "twinkling" star?? PD
