Triangular Shaped Object with Flashing Lights Flying over Escondido Friday Night Oct 9, 2009.

Around 7:30 pm during Cruising Grand, a large group of individuals noticed a triangular shaped object in the sky. At this time I looked up and noticed the same. This object had flashing white lights in what looked like the underside of the craft. These lights formed the triangular shape. There were also some red lights flashing what looked to be above the craft and some blue lights flashing periodically underneath the object. This craft was moving very very slowly towards the east. At one point the object stopped moving and abruptly dropped down what looked to be a couple thousand feet then immediately jumped back up in the sky in a matter of seconds. Everyone was talking and were astonished at this sighting. As a helicopter came to view in the sky, the object vanished.
