Light over Spokane, MO

The report, as filed

I was walking my dog down the street before going to bed. When I was just past the neighbor’s house, I noticed a dot of light that I initially thought was a shooting star. It was fairly high up, though lower than some planes, and it was moving extremely quickly parallel to the street at a slight downward angle. It disappeared after 1-2 seconds, and like I said, I thought it was a shooting star. But then 1-2 seconds later, two lights that looked the same as the first (perhaps one was the same) appeared following the same trajectory at the same altitude. They were moving extremely fast like shooting stars, but it looked as though one was chasing the other. It was close behind the other at an angle. What scared me was when they turned right. Keeping the same speed, they turned right in about a 130 degree turn (100-150 degrees), one closely following the other. Then they disappeared. They had been visible for 2-3 seconds. Then one appeared around the place they disappeared and darted away from me at around a 50-60 degree angle. It looked as though it was headed downward at a steeper angle than the ones before. It was a bit bigger and brighter, and it disappeared after 1-2 seconds. At this point, I had shivers in my chest and going down my spine, and I was fairly spooked. I was not totally terrified, but I was definitely spooked. I turned and ran with my dog back down the street towards my house. I was looking back as I did this and stopped in the street a few yards from my driveway. During this, I could make out light(s) and movement in the same general part of the sky, but I was not as focused and did not see exactly what it/they were doing. After that, they disappeared, and I ran inside. I did not see them again, even when my mother and I went out to look a minute or two later. I will check the investigator box below, but there is no dire need for someone to contact me. I just wanted to make it an option just in case someone wanted to contact me.
