Witness Testimony

"Investigator Beverly Trout is entering this report with consent from witness, who phoned Trout 5 minutes after incident occurred at 9:10 p.m. on Friday, 8/21/2015. Witness was standing on 2nd storey deck looking NE when he saw airplane traveling W to E. He then noticed a red mist-like object below the plane's elevation, which was the apparent size of a full moon at 38 degrees elevation speeding from SE to NW. As it traveled, object seemed to PHASE into red dots, then midway in the 60 degree transit, was perceived as a transparent/translucent triangle with red lights, all of this taking place within an estimated 3 seconds. Witness then went into house and was back out on the deck within a minute or two, and at 9:11 or 9:12 p.m. a 2nd object (or a re-run of the first object?) traveled the exact same flight path, going through the exact same "phasing" as the first object's transit. Witness has had previous sightings of UFOs."
