Reddish formation of dots in "Y" shape

At around quarter to 11 at night my friend called me and said he saw strange lights on the west end of town. I live on the east end of town and there are many trees on my street so I couldn’t see anything but I am a block away from Pete’s Hill, a popular jogging trail with a full view of the city. I went up on Pete’s Hill and saw the lights my friend was talking about. He was on the far west end of town but from the description he gave it didn’t take me long to see what he was talking about.

There were four lights that were a reddish color and seemed to flicker a bit. They were in the shape of a “Y” or as my friend said, a triangle with another dot in the bottom center. There seemed to be a fifth light (but very faint) slightly underneath the right side top of the ‘Y’.

I watched for a couple of minutes and they slowly seemed to float away from each other. It was slow enough that it wasn’t very noticeable but I could tell that after a couple of minutes they were in slightly different positions from each other. They eventually got fainter until I could not see them anymore.

I tried to look up what they could be online but couldn’t find anything. My friend who saw them showed me this site today that listed a similar occurrence on the same day, so I thought I should post my experience. It is nice to know we weren’t alone in seeing this.
