SIGHTING: GILBERT, ARIZONA (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"A bright white light flying from east to west as the sun set around 7 pm. thought initially it was a meteor due to the speed and the fact it was higher than the clouds. traveled from above me to about 1/3 to the western horizon when it just faded out. i was disappointed that the meteor just fizzled out when all of a sudden, the object was at a standstill and very bright with multiple colors flashing from it. it hovered for a few mins at the same high altitude then changed to a very bright red. soon after it darted in an s-shaped fashion to the south and perhaps a lower altitude, still very bright red when it stopped again. at this point, it split into 2 individual craft, both red in color. one flew east and lower, the other moved what seemed to be straight down where i lost sight of it behind a tree. within in a few moments, the one light i could still see started to display multiple colors as it hovered, and then disappeared. at this point, i no longer saw either craft.
