A Connecticut witness driving
southbound along Terry Plains Road in Simsbury reported getting as close as 300
feet to a hovering, triangle-shaped UFO and then following it, according to
February 5, 2014, testimony from Case 53913 in the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON)
witness reporting database.
The witness was driving home from
work at 11:40 p.m. on January 3, 2014, when bright lights caught his attention
above a wooded area close to the Farmington River. The witness first thought
the lights might be a plane as there are two airports in the area, but then
realized they were not moving - and eventually ruled out a helicopter, search
lights and a tower.
"The lights I saw were
extremely bright," the witness stated. "There were three white lights
and one center red light in a triangular formation. As I drove closer within
300 feet from the object, I could see it hovering just above the trees."
The witness then drove closer to
the object for a better look.
"When I saw it move by me I
realized that the object also had multiple white lights on the sides of the
triangle as well. I didn't see those side lights because of the position the
object was in initially when I came upon it and the brightness of the main
three white lights."
The witness then stopped his
vehicle and turned it around in an effort to find a better view of the object.
He also attempted to pull out his cell phone camera, but instead concentrated
on driving.
"Now I was headed in the
same direction as the object but couldn't see it because it was hidden behind
the tree line. I thought I might see it again just up ahead a little in the
opening were there are horse stables and a side road to stop my car."
The witness then opened up a moon
roof and looked up.
"It felt like it was right
over my car. I looked up through my moon roof window and was startled so much
that I remember saying out loud 'it's right there.' I felt as if 'they' caught
me watching them. At that point I didn't stick around to watch it any
longer."
The witness reports no other cars
along the roadway at the time, but is hoping an additional witnesses will come
forward who saw the same thing.
