NUFORC Sighting 122131

Occurred: 2015-09-19 20:00 Local
Reported: 2015-09-20 12:58 Pacific
Duration: 4 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Lafayette, LA, USA

Shape: Unknown
Characteristics: Lights on object

Standing in the shopping mall at the intersection of Johnston St. and Ambassador Caffrey at 8 PM, saw pulsing or blinking lights high above the horizon at sunset. I at first thought the lights were the landing lights of a plane or helicopter--seemed stationary.

All at once, the light moved at high speed diagonally for some distance and then the object was again stationary for some thirty seconds or so. Then, it dropped down at great speed where it was stationary at just above the horizon. I suspect a drone of some kind, as no plane or helicopter could move at such speeds and in such a fashion.

On this site, I found a similar report in the same area in January of this year.
