3 lights triangular shaped, AAA fire, lights warping out, stealth-type fighter

I was at Coors Brewery taking a break on the North side of the building on some stairs. I was just enjoying the evening light as it was fading in the mountains and scanning the horizon. To the Northwest at 8:50pm I saw 3 lights in a triangular formation just above the mountains: the brightness was unlike a street light that has the appearance of shards radiating from it...these lights were brilliant, clear bluishwhite and were perfectly round. The distance would not allow me to tell if there was one object or three. I could not believe what I was seeing, just sitting there in the distance, because I had always wanted to see a UFO. But there was no doubt in my mind, I was fixated. I stared at them, the lights, for about a 2 minutes and they winked out... just gone...even though I could see nothing but 3 lights I wanted to look some more.....all of a sudden, about 2-3 minutes later there were bursts of rapid firing light (similar to anti-aircraft fire, but they had no arc to them) from the ground (they were rectangular shaped and there was about 10 - 12 of them one behind the other). I could see nothing in the direction the lights were traveling but about the time the last light reached a certain height (approximately 2 inches to the right of my original sighting if you hold a ruler at arms length) there were several objects that streaked off in about a 30-45 degree angle from where I saw the AAA lights. It was very much like watching ships in star trek going into warp,,,,it was amazing....I called to a mechanic in the room behind me to come out, we saw nothing but there was a jet that appeared to be of stealth origins flying low over the mountains without lights heading in the general direction of my sighting the mechanic then left. I returned to work at 9:10pm. (well, I was a little late going back)
