Large Craft hovering over Highway surrounded by Bright white lights

3rd Party Report from civilian witness. Under investigation at this time, please contact me for further details if needed.

I received a report of a Large Craft hovering over Grays HWY (HWY 278) Cross street Wooden Horse Run on the sharp Curve.

Caller was very upset and stated that she just observed a large unidentified craft move and hover in front of her car from the sod farm fields next to the HWY at tree top level. The current information I have is that the craft had an unknown number of bright white lights surrounding it or encircling it, after hovering for a moment it then departed at a very high rate of speed and was visible again in the distance through the trees on the opposite side of the HWY for a moment.

Note: I have also found that this isn't uncommon for that area and that in the past a vehicle was "pursued" or tracked by a similar object. Obviously many of these reports are not readily shared. I also made a report about 2 years ago in which myself and a number of other Emergency Responders witnessed similar lighted crafts within 15min North of that area from different locations.
