Strange red lights: UFOs in sky over Boulder Co.? wrote:LAFAYETTE, Colo. -- A man in Lafayette shot some video this week that he thinks may show some UFOs in the sky over Boulder County.
Leroy Vandervegt's son, Nick, saw three red objects in a kind of triangular formation Monday night (March 21) at about 8:30, so Leroy got out his video camera and shot them to record what the both of them were seeing.
"I don’t know what they are," Leroy Vandervegt told the Boulder Daily Camera. "All I know is that I had no idea what it is. It wasn’t a satellite; it wasn’t an airplane; and it wasn’t a helicopter."
He says the three lights moved slowly and they didn't blink. They stayed in a triangular formation, but the shape of the triangle changed.
Officials at Denver International Airport didn't have any comment about the lights.
A spokesperson for the Federal Aviation Administration says his staff didn't see anything out of the ordinary that night.
Leroy posted his video on YouTube, and it has received several thousand hits so far.
There were reports of the same sighting from at least three other people.
One commenter on YouTube says that while he wants proof as bad as everyone else, he believes the three red lights are hot air candle balloons.
Doug Wilson, Colorado state director for the Greeley-based Mutual UFO Network, which works to learn the origins of UFO phenomenon, told the Camera it's unusual to receive multiple reports of the same sighting.
His group planned to send investigators to the scene.
