Light over Wetaskiwin (Canada), AB · Canada
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Bright red light almost spherical flew across the dark night from West to East, North of our Apartment. Did not see any strobe light that is common to aircraft. There was no sound, an roommate said it almost looked like a diamond shape a top of red light. I couldn't see any real shape other then a bright red light smoothly traveling West to East. It seemed to move a lot faster then any commercial aircraft would move. It was not a comet it did not burn out or go in a downward spiral. I tried to take a picture, but my camera wouldn't pick it up in the dark.

We were travelling southbound on highway 2 just north of wetaskiwin and saw a bright white light pointed at us in the sky. As we travelled it did not seem to move towards us as we thought a plane might. It had one bright light pointed at us which also seemed odd for a plane (though it was late and dark). As we travelled further it was clear the object was not moving and we drove by the object as it stayed still in the sky. Looking at the object from the rear view window it still had not moved after we had drove by. We could no longer see the white light, but instead two flashing red lights on opposite sides and two small solid (not flashing) white lights on opposite sides in somewhat of a square pattern of lights. All passengers in the vehicle assessed the object as we drove and agreed it did not move. We described it like a “plane sized drone not moving”. Matches the description of an earlier December sighting in wetaskiwin.

Weird slow flashing red lights that hovered for a bit then started following our vehicle. Made no sound whatsoever. There was a weird spotlight thing as well coming from the front of the craft.

A triangle shaped object just flew by from the north heading south. No noise and no lights. Only reason i noticed it was the reflection of ground lights were shining on the bottom. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
