New York triangle UFO described with 'hard to define edges'

A Genesee County, NY, witness reported watching a low flying, triangle-shaped UFO where the back edge of the object appeared to be a hologram with blurry, hard to define edges, according to January 2, 2013, testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witness had stepped outside of his business for a cigarette in the small town of Corfu, about 20 miles east of Buffalo, when the object was first seen.

"I looked up to the north-northwest and saw this craft that was flying by right above the shop and parallel with the county road that the shop is on," the witness stated. "I could hear a slight humming-buzzing."

The witness ran back into the business momentarily to get a second witness to come outside.

"It was triangular in shape and seemed like it was way too low. Had four to six lights on it."

The witness says the view of the craft was clear.

"It seemed like the back edge of it was a hologram or it went through a blurry change with no hard line to define the back edge of the craft. Also, when it did this, another light seemed to appear on the back edge as well. I watched as it flew to the west and slowly went out of sight with no apparent rush."

The witness summed up the experience.

"It just flew in a straight line as though it was kind of blurry and morphing, with a few lights on it and no wings or regular engine noise. Triangular in shape with some apparent outline, but blurry as well."
