Triangle over Peterborough, ON · Canada

A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.

The report, as filed

I was driving home from picking a late supper up from McDonald's. As I was leaving the city driving down Brealy Drive (before the Parkhill Road roundabout intersection) I spotted what looked to be an airplane / helicopter at first. The lights were not blinking in a way I was familiar with but because of the lights I initially dismissed it as an airplane / helicopter. As I approached closer to the intersection, I noticed the object was no longer moving in any direction and was hovering in place. It was not directly over the intersection but about 50m before the intersection. I looked up as I approached it with my head out my car window, saw it was a big black triangle shaped aircraft about 300m above the road. I could see that it was made of metal due to the lights on the aircraft illuminating the underside and being so close to the ground. There was 0 noise coming from it. It was fully visible from below and 50m in size approximately from one point of the triangle to another point. While keeping my eyes on it I almost drove into the ditch and came to a complete stop so I could get out of my car and start recording a video - as I went to do this the object took off and flew southbound across the city with an acceleration/speed not typical of aircraft. It was past the horizon in about 10 seconds from the time it started accelerating. The object was above me so the background was the nightsky. It was close enough to the ground that I could make out details on the crafts underbelly / see the lights illuminating part of the underbelly. I immediately drove home processing what I had just witnessed and got to work researching to disprove that I had seen a UAP. I tried looking up experimental triangle craft the military have worked on and could find nothing other than a rumored anti grav triangle craft the US was rumored to have made some years ago - though that seems unlikely because why would they be hovering over the outskirts of my city?! I looked up all registered flight paths in my area + the radar data for the area to see if anything matched the flight path this object took - nothing was registered as having flown over that area at that time / date. Attached to this report is a photograph someone else had taken in the past - but matched exactly what I saw that night. I also am attaching a video from another person who had seen something similar + described it the same way as I saw that night. These files ARE NOT taken directly by me but were found by me when trying to find out what I'd seen and came across similar reports of these objects. The photo / video are IDENTICAL to what I saw above me that night - down to the lights, shape, etc. I have also attached a Google maps image with the location circled where it was hovering silently.

One evening the girlfriend and I were outside having a smoke, cigarette. Light off in the distant was interesting and caught my eye, after we where finished smoking I looked at my gf. Said want to see something wild, then pointed at the light. Which in turn started to approach us, it then had a light that would blink/ flash. But one at a time in a W, to the naked eye this made the light look like it zig zagged and danced threw the sky. ₩ for Gradually getting closer, we figured dang this is one fast moving object. As it approaches we realize it's one heluva massive airplane just moving slowly threw the sky no care in the world. But wait the center hole that's eliminating blue light.. that's not an airplane. Its something but not a plane. Sounded like wind going by. I have seen a zig zag light take off over Lakefield College school, sometime in the 90s. also have a few orbis shape bright light/white. In my life which could be alot of things but this one left me thinking about it about a year later and wanting more. I looked online and never have seen reports other then it looks kinda like the Terbs front half. With one glowing circle. Yes I know the peterborough airport is close. Thay said the gf doesn't like to take about it. Did see a bigger normal airplane fly over a bit higher in the air one day, she was like yah okay that was something much larger. Note: After this experience I was like ill be open to new things, did find an abandoned kitten within 36 hours in the area the UFO traveled doubt its anything but I don't know what you guys know so. No attempts of video do it justice of this event always get shaky excited when I see something. Plus was at a disagreement with the people upstairs so found it in bad taste to take a photo as there window would be in it and didn't want to seem weird regret telling the gf. Not to this day. As stated I believe all video is shaky and it just looks like an Orb blinking until it was over us. Not against being called or being reached out to. That said I won't check the box as I don't need to be bothered or bother your investators if there's really nothing more usefulness to add.
