Video: Disc UFO caught on camera over Illinois

An Illinois witness videotaping the sky on January 5, 2012, reports also photographing a disc or oval-shaped object, according to testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) witness reporting database.

"I was filming a heavy spraying of chemtrails starting earlier 8ish yesterday, when all of the sudden I spotted a disk or oval-shaped craft flying alongside one of the chemtrails," the witness stated. "As I try to zoom in, the auto focus of my camera made me lose track of the object."

The video can be seen on this page - or downloaded directly from MUFON.

No town name was mentioned in the public portion of the MUFON report, which was filed on January 6, 2012. The above quotes were edited for clarity.
