National UFO Reporting Center Sighting Report
Occurred : 7/7/2008 21:20 (Entered as : 07/07/08 21:20) Reported: 7/7/2008 7:46:43 PM 19:46 Posted: 8/12/2008 Location: Eldridge, IA Shape: Triangle Duration: 30-60 seconds Characteristics: There were lights on the object
Small triangle shaped lights moving through sky. Saw three small white lights in shape of triangle. 2 or 3 small red lights were in the middle of the triangle, or on its edges. Since it was night, it just looked like lights in the shape of a triangle. It stayed above a gas station, not moving. It looked like it was a small "craft". Only 15 feet long maybe. It was about 50 yards high in the air. After about 30 seconds of just floating above the gas station it started moving North-Northwest. It wasn't going very fast, maybe 30 mph. It then went out of sight above the tops of houses. No sound like a helicopter, but floated and moved slowly so it couldn't have been a plane.
