The report, as filed
I was getting a fire going out side with my two daughters and ones mom. To hang and cook some s’mores. When the mother and oldest daughter started saying loudly. What is that ?! What is that ?! In some kind of panic / nervous voice . As they where looking up pointing I was thinking they saw an animal in a tree. As I came over and said what where. They pointed in a different direction as I seen this big bright orange type color like the shape of a hot air balloon. Going across the sky. Moving fast but not a like flash fast. Airplane fast but way to big and oddly shaped for an airplane. I am ex military. Served over seas and this made my hairs stand some. There was and airplane at a decent amount of distance behind it heading in the same direction towards it.

My boyfriend and I were watching the meteor shower and throughout the night, I kept seeing a flash of light at the corner of my vision, so I thought I had an issue with my eye or something. At one point when I was facing in the exact direction of the light, I clearly seen a neon green flash of light and I asked my boyfriend if he had seen it and he did. It was funny too because he also told me had kept seeing it at the corner of his eye as well and he thought it was something messed up with his vision/eye as well. So, after we both realized this flash of light was legitmate, we both sat and stared in the direction of the light. There was a wide tornado-shaped cloud above the mountain range in the distance but we had a clear view of this phenomenon. The cloud kept lighting up neon green and at some points it would blink very fast and at other times it would go bright gradually and then dim down slowly. Also, there was a strange humming or buzzing noise accompanying this incident. It was very strange....we also started to hear coyotes crying/howling in the distance so we ended up leaving the spot we were at. After hearing the coyotes, the light also went away. It freaked us out pretty bad! Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD

My boyfriend and I were driving through town when we noticed a triangle-shaped craft above the tree tops. It was a black triangle with white lights at each corner. One of the lights was blinking. About five seconds after seeing this triangle-shaped craft, two more came into view. All three crafts were the same and they flew across the sky in a triangle-formation. There was no sound at all and then they disappeared over a building and the trees. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD
