Diamond Bar, CA

Was driving my transit bus around 645 heading south on reservoir Ave in Pomona and saw a round shape object flying low heading westbound on mission blvd it was about 30 yards in the air, I thought it was a ballon but i kept observing it until i saw it change shape and it went from a round ball shape into what i could only describe as a crumble up piece of paper that what floating away. I thought maybe it was a ballon and it exploded. So im traveling south on mission and get on the 60 westbount towards los angeles I try to see if i see the object were it was traveling and i did not see it no more, but then after passing diamond bar highschool and note im on the 60 westbound in my bus passing golden springs i see the object again and i saw it change shape from a crumble up piece of paper to a ball like shape and the change to a square and finally turn in to a triangle i was amazed because i habe never seen nothing like it and the object was black by the way. I could not belive what i saw next it was following a creature of some sort i look like a jelly fish like snake but move like it was in water in a up and down motion and it look like it jad fins but the were glowing purple it look like a flying snake but jelly fish like i was surprise i wanted to stop but i couldn't because i was driving my transit bus and i was deadheading from yard to my start up location in rowland heights and the weird thing os i heard stories of friends and family members seeing thing over the skies of pomona but never belive until i saw it my self i put thease here because another driver told me they saw some like what I saw but it was on the 10 freeway also in the pomona area i really think something is going on here and it would be great if some of you guys could check it out for your self. The time of my sighting was around the dawn hours and the other driver also saw his in dawn my other family seen it around 2am morning hours.

((ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Hi Peter, So here goes. My wife and I were sitting in our backyard in the Jacuzzi (as we do every night) watching the planes come in to land at LAX. Have lived here for 18 years and sit outside at night often. Well, she was talking to me and I was staring up at the sky cause I saw a bright light that didn't look familiar and it was moving slow, going away from us, stopping on a dime and then slowly coming back. Its flight pattern was irregular. I thought perhaps it was a helicopter (I am a helicopter pilot) doing a circular holding pattern over a traffic accident as sometime they do. The only thing that didn't make sense was how bright it was and not being able to see any flashing lights...at least not yet. And then of course how it was moving. It was southeast of our house and proceeded to move all over the sky. Not super-fast, but faster than anything else at that altitude which is what also made it stand out. So I jumped out of the Jacuzzi (we had been watching it for about 2 minutes by then) and I ran in and grabbed my phone. At one point it looked like it turned (without moving in the sky) and we saw red blinking or flashing lights for about 5 seconds. It moved all over the sky in a random fashion. It was not a helicopter or plane. I went on a site and tracked the aircraft in the areas at around 6:45-6:55 pm and did not see any helicopters. Of course with all UFO video, sometimes it is hard to see what is going on. I backed out on one of the videos so you could see the palm trees in my back yard as a reference for how it was moving. There are street lights in the picture, but I think you will get a good picture from the video. It went beyond the horizon of our backyard and that's when we lost it. Could it have been a drone? Sure, but since I don't know what drones with lights look like and have never in all the time I have lived here seen what I saw last night, I decided to report it to you guys based on the recommendation of a friend that is familiar with ya and after he had seen the videos. They are on my facebook. ((address deleted)) There are two of them. ((name deleted)) Glad I could help in any way. Not saying it was extraterrestrial, just that I have never seen anything like that. You will see a jet coming into land at LAX and I wondered if they saw it. We have requested more information, and a copy of the photo, from the witness. PD
