It was july 26 2015 and i was leaving a retirement party of a friend i worked with. this was in mentor ohio on reynolds rd. two people were looking up at the sky at about a 60 degree angle. i looked up and saw 7 objects with distinctive red lights on the front of each. the size of the red beam appeared to be about one third the size of the vehicle. after a few minutes it seemed as though one of the objects was turning his red beam at me. it felt like it was getting information from me so it seemed. the objects were hovering. there were two people in front of me about 20 yards away. i was somehow mentally blocked from speaking to them or even moving toward them. after a few minutes some of the objects lights started to fade and then one of the vehicles faded out slowly and then another on the other side. the objects themselves were in a delta formation (7 objects). something was happening on the top of one of the objects. it looked as though something was changing or transforming on the top of the wing. they were facing south. so they might of come from the lake erie direction which was 3 miles away. powerlines from a nearby plant were a quarter mile from the objects. this incident was reported to another ufo organization about a week after the incident but after watching mufon on tv, one of those ufo incident shows, i felt that i should report to it you.
