In Toledo Ohio on June 28 at 12:45 am a Red Bowed shape object was seen in the sky. It followed our car and then disappeared.

My friend and I were driving down the road when he asked me if I see that in the sky. At first I said it was a hot air balloon but it was not. It was red and bowed out on the right side. It was like looking at a sail from a sail boat side view as the wind was hitting it. It was moving fast and began to come closer to the ground and to our car. When we stopped at the stop light it stopped also. When we turned right it turned right and followed us at the same speed. We would slow down and so did it and so on. As we approached the nexted stop light it stopped again. We turned left and then it turned left. It followed us either in front of us or to the left of us. As we reached our destination and pulled into the parking lot it continued to follow us. We sat in the car looking at it once we turned off the car and got out it disappeared behind some trees. We did not see it again. Both myself and the driver are educated individuals and have never seen anything like that before. WE have told a couple of people but no one believes us. My father and another friend were following us in two different cars the girl that was following us did not see anything. My father on the other hand says he did not see anything but I think that he did because as soon as we got out of the car and into our meeting place he asked us what we saw. I think he saw it and is just scared to admit it.
