The report, as filed
At apx 8:55 pm my wife said she sees something strange in the western sky. I got out of bed and we both witnessed 7 flashing lights in the sky. We tried to take a picture with our good camera but battery showed on camera it was weak. My wife was able to capture 1 picture with her phone. We then witnessed the objects disappearing one by one till there were just 3 that made a triangle shape. Finally last one disappeared. When we looked at her picture we saw a green orb above the lights. We did not see this orb with the eye.Also there was no sound from crafts. Thank you john

I am a police officer and deputy sheriff. While on duty after dark, near the top of my windshield (frame of view) I witnessed movement in the sky (southbound direction of view). Upon concentrating my focus, viewing through the low light, I was able to make out a triangle craft, with 3 dim green lights per side (just bright enough to assess size, shape, and movement). The craft moved to my right (westbound). Due to tree coverage, I lost sight of it quickly, to which I never located it again, maintaining visual contact for less than 10 seconds. While it appeared very low, it is difficult to determine distance, size, and speed, given the relationship between those factors. I did not hear any noises, however I was at speed on the roadway inside a vehicle. I am privy to what helicopters and airplanes look like in the sky, frequently working alongside medical flight crews in the area, and where nearby airports are, making me somewhat familiar with common areas of the sky in which low air travel is common. This was unlike anything I had ever witnessed. It should also be noted, that within approximately one hour of my sighting, I responded to a call from a homeowner reporting hearing something running outside of his home, to which he stated did not sound like an animal. The callers’ residence was in the direction from which the object came when I witnessed it, as the crow flies, in a heavily wooded and forested area. There were no other similar or relevant calls, and no reported sightings through our 911 center.

Saw a huge moving light cruising along from the northwest sky moving east. It looked like the moon looks when it's behind a cloud but the entire thing moved along with the cloud or whatever was obscuring it. It seemed close to the ground....much closer than any planes or helicopters fly. We hopped in our car to get a better look but it was gone. Alot of stars out, not much light pollution here. I watch the night sky alot & have never seen anything like this in my 52 years. My husband was dumbfounded too.

Observed one object that looked like a "shooting star" traveling from West to East. Duration of a few seconds then disappeared. Appeared again in same line of travel for a few seconds and then made a 90 degree angle turn to the South. Then after a few seconds was no longer visible. About 10 seconds later observed the same thing. Then again a few seconds after that. So three sightings in all in a short period of time.
