Triangular UFO, with protruding windows, over a field in Indiana

One thing I use to love doing was taking drives at night. One evening back in 2000, I decided to go for a drive; it was about 3:00 am. Everything was fine. It was a nice night out and I had the windows down on my car.

I decided it was time to head home so I turned down 25th Street, just off of German Church Road. I passed over a small bridge when I saw a triangular-shaped object hovering over a small field. From the car I could tell there were three dome-shaped windows on two sides of the object and another one off the bottom of the craft. Lights were on inside.

There was a small farm house between me and the UFO so I decided to go just past the house to get a better look. When I got to where I should have been able to see it better, it was gone. I didn't see it leave. I didn't see it disappear; it was just gone.

I spent the next minute or two looking around for it, but it was nowhere to be found.

A few days, maybe weeks, later as I was watching TV, there was a show (Unsolved Mysteries) that was doing an episode on UFOs. During this telecast I saw, for the first time, mention of the same craft as I had seen just days before. It was then that I knew it was real.
