Utah witnesses photograph lights in triangle formation

Two witnesses pulled over to the side of the road in Salt Lake City's East Milcreek suburb to watch and photograph slow-moving objects that formed a triangle in the sky, according to June 12, 2011, testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

The witnesses first thought the lights were part of a fireworks display, but then realized that the lights "didn't disappear and were moving for at least five minutes."

"We pulled over on 3300 South near 2000 East in the East Milcreek suburb of Salt Lake City," the reporting witness stated. "We watched as the objects, which were very bright, moved slowly from west to east, slowly formed triangles and then one by one disappeared."

The witnesses were able to take two images - Image # 1 and Image # 2. The event occurred on June 11, 2011.

Utah is a current UFO ALERT 5 rating,
 with a low number of UFO sightings nationally. Utah had 7 reports in May 2011, while California had 55 UFO reports - the highest reporting state in the nation.

UT, June 11, 2011 - large group of slow moving objects go into triangle formation and disappear. MUFON Case # 29502.

As I was driving home from getting dinner, my girlfriend and I noticed a large group of lights in the sky that appeared to be remnants of a large firework, however they didn't disappear and were moving for at least 5 minutes.

We pulled over on 3300 South near 2000 East in the East Milcreek suburb of Salt Lake City. We watched as the objects, which were very bright, moved slowly from West to East, slowly formed triangles and then one by one disappeared.

We attempted to take video but armed only with our camera phones, were left with a poor quality end product. We were able to snap two pictures - one of all the lights which looks like the end of a firework and the other of the "triangle" shape.
