The report, as filed

I have on video what me and my children witness last night. It was unbelievable. It shined a big spot light , that's what initially got my attention which cause me to pull over on the highway. I sat and watched this unusual craft for 33 minutes until it took off with a tilt and zoomed away into the night. I called 911 , they didn't believe us. I have some clear picture and video to prove what we saw last night. I'm still in shock

I was driving home from work on a local road near old Camp Kilmer in Edison, when I noticed a fast moving object high in the sky. The time was approximately 5:40 p.m., the weather was sunny and the sky had large, fluffy clouds. The object moved very fast, looked disk shaped with a dome, and was a bright, white metallic color. The speed and movement didn't seem like a plane. It flew very smooth and faster than any plane I've seen. I did not see any aircraft wings or blades like on a helicopter. I continued watching it fly northeast for about a minute, while still trying to pay attention to the road. I couldn't stop looking at it as it just seemed so strange and fascinated me. I wanted to try to take a picture but could not safely pull to side of road. Incident happened quickly and not enough time to get phone and take photo.

I was sitting outside on on the phone, on the front steps and I noticed 2 rotating objects. They looked like a football on its side. If I could describe it, I would say it looked as if they were showing each other their moves or just taking turns. My first impression was that the sunlight was reflecting off this "thing" as to why I looked up. So as I was on the phone, I started to look where the sun was located. The sun was located over my right shoulder and house. However it wasn't a constant reflection. It seemed as if it was rotating sideways and every time it rotated, it would reflect or flash. I cut my conversation short with my Dad and told him that I needed to record something that was happening right before my eyes. They looked like 3D objects. As I am making sure my eyes were not deceiving me and that something that I really can't explain was occurring. Due to the fact that this happened about 6 yrs ago, same place, I wasn't prepared at t! hat time because it was hard for me to record through my phone. Those objects were white and it looked like a box with a circle on top but it was connected. Those objects stayed on a smooth path across the sky, very low. My wife and daughter saw it with me. So this time I wanted to make sure. Once I figured out what I was seeing was real and unexplainable, I ran inside and told my wife. She was in the bathroom and we started watching the objects from the bathroom window. I then said, I have to record this! I then went back on my steps and thats where my footage starts. We were just watching what these 2 things were doing and I was making sure to point out every movement to her to make sure we were on the same page. There were 2 objects kind of like floating and rotating kind of slow emulating each others movement to the best of ability to describe it. Everytime it looked as if it made a full rotation, it was either reflecting the sun rays or flashing. All of sudden, one of the objects just floated up and disappeared, leaving the other one looking like a transparent circle, or sphere with a hole in the middle of it. As I am recording, you can see it move, blink, flash, disappear, reaapear. At one point, a plane flew in view of the recording very close to this object. It looked as if the object took cover or hid in a jetstream that they were flying around. As soon as the plane passes by, the object went into the clouds and stopped blinking. After that, the object just stayed in that area and after awhile, it vanished within the cloud. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

I always put my dogs out at 11:00 and each time I go outside I'm always looking up in the sky to see if I can see a UFO. I am very interested in it and I always wanted to see something and I know I finally did. My husband was with me who isn't really interested in it, but he noticed it at the same time I did. We saw 1 object, very bright reddish/orange, oval shape. It was hovering back & forth then down and finally went up and disappeared.
