SIGHTING: VIRGINIA BEACH, VIRGINIA (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"After the power went out at around 9:00pm, whole area went dark, I went out on balcony to see fire trucks in front of our Resort, looked up to see stars since no light pollution now, trying to identify constellations, when saw this V-formation of lights fly directly overhead, right over roof top of our building, south end of Virginia Beach, watched it go from right to left, sourh to north, silent, swift, not Navy jets because totally silent and too close, not birds because too fast for Brown Pelicans to be gliding by, or ducks or geese who make noise as they fly, do these birds even fly at night? Was going through all what it could have been, coming up negative every time. V-formation consisted of barely visible spherical balls of silvery lights, with a sort of light rainbow fuzzy haze surrounding and trailing them. It was its own light because power outage no ground light to reflect with. Lost sight of it when it went beyond the building. As of this writing, officials do not know what caused the power outage in our area, which was restored by 1:18am. When I saw the V-formation, I was wondering when the power would return, and I got a mental image of "1:00". I told everyone "Let's see if the power comes back on at 1:00". Naval Air Station nearby, could it be a new experimental fighter jet like the Stealth bomber? Earlier that afternoon, a Virginia State police helicopter was flying low, up and down the beach, several passes. We all wondered what it was looking for. Was this a real UFO disabled flying too low trailing a haze that caused the power outage? I was the sole eye witness."
