LIGHTS OVER NEW JERSEY

JUST CHECK THE LOCAL STARLEDGER IN NJ. I DID SEE ON BRIGHT LIGHT. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS A BRIGHT STAR BUT IT SEEMED WEIRD. I STARED AT IT FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND DISMISSED IT. ONLY TO READ THE NEXT MORNING THAT NUMEROUS PEOPLE ON THE NJ TURNPIKE WITNESS A LIGHT IS A TRIANGLE SHAPE OVER THE TOWN OF CARTERET. MY OPINION WOULD BE I ONLY SAW THE ONE CORNER OF THE TRIANGLE SO I CAN ONLY ASSUME I WAS DIRECTLY UNDER THE OBJECT AND IT MUST HAVE BEEN LARGE.

NUFORC Note:

We presume that the witness is alluding to the sighting at 0030 hrs. on Sunday, July 15, 2001. We have amended time and date here. PD
