SIGHTING: SANTA MONICA, CALIFORNIA (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I was on my ninth floor balcony just after sunset looking at the sky and ocean on a beautiful quiet night. i went inside but then i noticed a brightly colored glowing drone-like object coming towards my kitchen window. i thought it might be a drone but it was too fast and quiet and changing directions quickly in a v-shape pattern. i grabbed my cell phone to videotape it and the lights faded out and it darted around the front corner of my building and seemed to vanish. i ran to the front balcony and it was nowhere in site. i had the definite sense it was a ufo, not a drone or manmade object. i thought i'd videotaped the object but what showed on my camera was just a still image of the object as it must have been moving away, and a second all-black image, which i've never seen before on any of my cameras. unfortunately i didn't capture an image when the object was close to me, colorfully lit and somewhat magical in feeling."
