Circle over Covina, CA
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
Begins to move north at a very slow pace and slowly Vanishing. It was obviously small from where I'm standing, but by the shape of the Moon and the shape of the object which was like a silver color, it looked quite big.
Held as-reported from National UFO Reporting Center (record NUFORC #135415). 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.

Round redish orange light crossing over San Gabriel mountains going east to west very slowly. There were planes close by that had visible red and white blinking lights so we knew it wasn't a plane. All of a sudden vanished like it was turned off.

My employee and I were renovating my swimming pool when he said “what ((2 words deleted)) is that?” I look at him and he is looking up at about 75-80% I follow his gaze to see this object hovering. I honestly don’t know wHt it could be ad I’m hoping someone can help identify it as something known. As you can see from pic it seems to have almost a tail like structure on the bottom of a cylinder, white in color. If anyone has any ability to clean this up with software or something please feel free to do so. I Make no claim as to what it is. In full disclosure this is my second report to nuforc. The first was 8-11-09 in Mesa, AZ. I still to this day stand by that account, and what I witnessed was unequivocally a space craft not of human design. It left the ground & went up until it vanished in space w/o using combustion propulsion. This object however, I have no idea. I didn’t report it immediately because I had hoped something would come to light to explain it, but nothing has.

On Sunday march 26 2017, two f-16s where recorded on video chasing two disc shape ufo’s from 6am to 1230pm , off and on over Covina, ca. One disc flew up to the windshield of the f-16 . The ufo then immediately descended 2 miles and flew up to the video camera 300 feet away. The same event happened again on the same day in 2018 and 2019. I have the video from all 3 years.

COVINA, CALIFORNIA UFO VIDEO--On March 26, 2017, at 12:30 pm, I received a copy of a video taken with an android phone. The person holding the phone/camera stated that two jets (likely F-16) were circling the area of approximately Covina/San Dames, Ca. During the approach of the 2nd circling of the two jets, she decided to start recording. She also stated that the two jets were heard from 7am to 1pm, on and off during that day. All the rest of the facts are on the video. As a ((specialty deleted/medical)), people literally trust me with their lives. I understand how important it is to only deal with facts. I have never seen a video that shows a “cat and mouse” chase with two f-16 jets and two UFO’s,( in my opinion, most likely 2 ufo drones) especially in the day time over the Los Angeles area. I would guess the speeds of the ufo’s are over 30,000 mph. All the activity appears to occur during time/second 20 to 22. The 2 UFO’s appear at exactly the same time as the two jets enter into the cloud. I swear all this is true and accurate to the best of my ability. Dr. ((name deleted)), ((specialty deleted/medical)), Class of 1982. ADDENDUM FROM WITNESS)) Hi Peter, The only audio I know are the jets. Freeze Frame second 20 to 21.5 using slow motion app 1/30th of a second. the ufos are dancing around for 1.3 seconds. they are invisible to the human eye in real time. The ufos were notice after the event. ((male name deleted)) ((END ADDENDUM)) We do observe two black "splotches" that appear in the video for a fraction of a second, but we have no idea what they are, and we do not have enough information to conclude that they are any type of unusual craft. The F-16's appear to be flying in a normal two-plane formation, and do not appear to react to anything unusual in their proximity. The "splotches" may be photographic anomalies, rather than actual objects, we suspect. PD
