Characteristics: Lights on object

Red and blue light formation seen by 6 people streak from north to south, then back north, hover, then dropped slowly beyond tree line.

On January 17, 2014, at approximatley 1830 hrs, my wife, two nieces and nephews, and myself observed a red and blue formation of lights streaking at a high rate of speed. The lights were first observed by us approaching from the north of Lacey, Washington, traveling in a southerly direction.

Then the lights stopped abruptly, then seemed to hover for about five seconds. The lights appeared to make an approximate one hundred and eighty degree turn, then again streaked at a moderate speed across the sky again. The lights then stopped again, appeared to move sharply in an easterly direction briefly. Again the lights stopped abruptly and hovered, then zipped again in a northern direction a small distance. Then it came again to an abrupt stop, hovered for a moment, and then came down behind the tree line and out of our sight. We remained outside for approximatley fifteen minutes, watching the general area, but the lights did not reappear.
