October 2023·western United States·FBI·unresolved

The witness observed at least four lights hovering and moving at approximately 6,000 feet above ground level, and a slightly dark object with a faint red light that appeared to use terrain for concealment.

“The next day I saw at least four lights hovering and moving at approx. 6k above ground level. The lights seemed to appear out of nowhere and moved horizontally northbound hovering periodically. At approx. 400 meters away I saw an object that was slightly darker than the sky at dusk and lighter than the color of the terrain. There was a faint red light on the object which was static and hovering in between two mountain ridges.”
