Witness Testimony

"Strange flashes of light near Sirius.At around 10:35pm I walked outside to smoke a cigarette. The night was clear with little to no wind. As I glanced up (toward the south) I noticed flashes of light near Sirius. I thought it was odd because aircraft don't fly that close together unless they are military. As I looked closer, I noticed that the flashes were not moving and not consistant like aircraft lights. Instead it was as if they were "popping" all around Sirius. There were very faint but observable from my vantage point even with the light pollution from the city. I am also sure I saw some sort of thin green/blue light sreak near the flashes. After 2-3 minutes of watching and not believeing what I was seeing I woke up my friend and asked them them to tell me what she saw. She said, "I see little flashes of light around that star. What is that?" I swear the first thing I thought of was some kind of battle going on. Did anyone else see this?"
