Triangel shaped object with planes

AT appox 5:oo pm we lost our power to our homes in Pomona, Makanda, and parts of Carbondale. At appox 6:00 my son who works in Wolfe Lake seen a bright light coming down out of the sky, He first thought it was a helicopter, it came pretty low and then it went back up and he seen that it was a black triangle, silent about the size of a football feild but what was strange is that it had what appeared to be four airplanes flying behind it. They watched it for quite awhile.

He then came home we ate at my moms by kerasene light, then our power was restored and we went home. At appox 9:oo pm. we took our dogs out to go to the bathroom and there the light was again, we really couldn't see a object because of to many trees, anyway it would move up and it would like either back up or turn around we couldn't really tell. We went inside and it was still out there, I work nights running a paper route and didn't see anything strange, but I thought that was strange or maybe not that we lost our power for almost four hours and this thing appears.

Well thought you might be interested in hearing this.

Thank you
