Reported: 1999-02-25 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 90 seconds
No of observers: 1

Location: Mesa (north of), AZ, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

I saw a black craft floating in the air, no noise or anything. When I got out of my car to see what was going on, it left.

I was on my way back from delivering a pizza, when I saw a quick flash of light. I looked out the window because I thought that a plane might have been going down. I saw two lights about 250 yards away in the sky. I got out of my car to see what they were. I still don't know what it was, but it was triangle shaped object with two bright lights towards the front. It just hovered there, moving slowly forward (towards me). I was struck with fear, but I couldn't seem to take my eyes off of it. It seemed to be a black or very dark blue color. It got within 175 to 150 yards away from me and then it was gone, it went straight up, moving so fast it just seemed to vanish. I don't know if it was the object or what, but that was the only time I remember any noise, it sounded like a whoosh. The whole thing lasted about 90 seconds. I know there are two airforce bases close by, or were then. I didn't know if it was a new kind of plane or something until it took off. I called Williams AFB and they said they had no planes flying in that area, and the man on the phone all but laughed when I told him what I saw. He said that I was making it up, and I should call someone else. I was 22 at the time, married with a daughter, I lived about 10 miles southeast from the location. I haven't seen anything else close to that before or since the event happend. I now work as an equipment maintenance technician and live in CA.
