Reported: 2017-07-03 23:12 Pacific
Duration: 40 seconds
No of observers: 300

Location: Doaktown, NB, Canada

Shape: Formation
Characteristics: Lights on object

Triangular formation of 3 blue/white lights flying above a firework show.

The small community, Doaktown, New Brunswick, Canada was watching the fireworks being held for "Canada 150" at the Doaktown School playground, when the UFO was spotted at 10:31pm Atlantic time. The UFO was flying in a triangular formation, but it appeared to be 3 separate lights that were round in shape and white/blue in colour. They were not overly bright. They flew over the fireworks and were almost hit a number of times before suddenly changing direction flying North- East rather than strictly East. It came from the West. Many people saw the UFO and in a video of the fireworks that I had taken a man can be heard saying, "What's that flying over top?", while numerous other people gasp and shout about "the lights". It cannot be seen in the video - it was shot with a Samsung Note 4 camera which has poor low-light detection while on video mode. I did however, get a photo of the object while the sky was dark and firework-less. The photo is not of good quality and the object looked quite different in person, but this is the best I could do in the 40 seconds that it lasted. You can see in the middle of the photo, 3 lights that form a triangle, this is the object. Again though, it looked different in person and to the naked eye as the lights appeared closer to earth, larger, and more white/blue than the photo shows.
