col ored cloud phasing into his sight. The cl oud was stationary in the sky,
and -
stated it looked very strange, as if it was pixel ated or distorted
in some other manner .
As he watched the cloud, he saw a constant, diffuse
red light on the bottom front point of a solid b l ack triangular shaped
object corning out of the c l oud towards the south, southeast.
The object
behind the point became wider and l arger as it exited the c l oud until ­
saw the entire equilateral triangular object with a red light in each of the
three corners.
-
estimated the triangle UAP was very l arge and coul d
have been as large as the parking l ot in whi ch he was standing. He estimated
the UAP was the equivalent of 3- 5 stories in thickness.
Based upon ­
memory, at arm's l ength, each of the three lights on the triangle UAP was
the size of a fingernail .
Initially the UAP was moving south and slightl y east at a steady speed
comparabl e to a hel icopter .
-
believed the UAP was at an altitude of
3000-5000 feet, comparable to small civilian aircraft in training f l ights.
It then almost instantaneously accel erated to possibl y Mach 1 or 2 and
turned s l ightly, heading directl y south or sightl y southwest.
-
noticed
there appeared to be waves surrounding and radiating from the object .
He
compared the waves to the mirage effect that can be observed when you look
down a hot road into the di stance .
-
d i d not hear the object make any
noise, could not see any form of propulsion, and di d not smell anything out
of the ordinary.
-
bel ieved the object was al most directl y over his
position, possibly over the
As the object moved, it abr uptly banked 90 degrees on its l eft
side with its three lights still visible whi le veering towards the right ,
and then it quickl y banked back down to l evel flight .
The banking motion
was opposite of a conventional aircraft would bank in the direction it was
turning.
-
lost sight of the object as it went over the

from his perspective, towards the south.
-
looked back to
where it originall y came into view and noticed that the dark- gray c l oud had
disappeared .
He called his wife about 60 seconds later to tell her about
the event, and she said that his voice sounded robotic, as if there was
electronic i nterference occurri ng with the call .
