The report, as filed
I was in Gilcrest, when two extremely dark tiny, comet-shaped clouds were spinning around. They went in an out of clarity, one even disappeared and reapeered. They then just suddenly vanished. I dont think the clouds were UFOs but they might of came from one.

Not sure it was a UFO, but a huge yellow plane-shaped object buzzed my neighborhood. It looked like a jet, but had no wings an made a loud squeaking noise. I think it might have been a plane, but it had no wings! Source of report indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Driving east, CR 42, I saw 3 dots moving at high speed, flying very high. I knew it wasn't a few airplanes because they didn't blink red or green. One of them even went very fast straight towards us, and pulled up to join the others. This has happened about 3 or 4 times now. The 3 dots were completely lit up, and of varying sizes. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD

Heading SB on Hwy 85 going through Gilcrest. Single bright solid dot flies northeast to southeast. No trail, but was moving really quick. Pretty obvious when there's fields and no light at the location.

Just outside of Platteville, Heading north towards Gilcrest via Highway 85, 3 craft flying low in a triangle formation, spinning in a circle while in formation, then one after another, they vanish suddenly. They are not much different from a sighting I saw over Gilcrest this year. They were 3 dots in the sky of varying sizes, all just bright white lights. But the difference was that this sighting the UFOs were in formation and the radio reception got fuzzy and the streetlights were flickering. The cows in the field noticed it too. Witness indicates that the date of the sighting is approximate. PD
