All Reported UFO Sightings in Troutman, North Carolina

Full Report Text:

Driving down road, UFO passes overhead flying at 125 yards. And disappeared into the clouds. Driving down the road, when a cigar shaped ufo passed overhead to my left.

Low, and was in the clouds. I saw it pass going about 400 mph. It was only around 450 yards away.

And only 125 yards off the ground. The lights looked like no plane. And the shape didn’t look like a plane.

After the 4-5 seconds that I saw it, it disappeared into the clouds. No light ever came out of the clouds, even after a reasonable time.

Several strange orange lights seen in formation on the sky near Troutman, NC. April 20th, 2019, around 8:45PM EST, we were driving on Highway 21 towards the city of Troutman, when we witnessed a lot of strange lights hovering towards the north, some 35 degrees above the horizon. At some point, we could see between 15 to 20 distinct lights.

It was an incredible sighting. When we finally found a safe place to park the lights started to disappear and we did not even have a chance to take a decent picture of it. The lights were moving slowly and randomly, mostly hovering below the lowest clouds and some of the lights even seemed to have entered the clouds.

The METAR for the nearby Statesville Airport reported scattered clouds as 3000 feet and broken clouds above 4500. By estimating that the lights were a mere 3000 feet above ground and on a 35 degree above the horizon from us, I estimate them to have been hovering above the Murdock Rd area, between interstate 77 and Barium Springs.  Our position as observers was at 35°41'25"N 80°52'07"W.

I am an aviation enthusiast and have a couple dozen hours of flying time as a pilot. I am aware of when I see something out of the ordinary.  Has anybody else seen or taken a picture/video of this?.

My husband and I were on our way top pick our daughter up from work at Wendy's. While driving under the bridge, I noticed a group of 4 red lights hovering over Bojangles. They weren't moving or blinking like those on the tower to the right.

I immediately told my husband to look and soon after the started to form a angle and go up. I instructed my husband to hurry and park the car so I could get a picture, all while watching them out the window. They started to go upward until they disappeared but a few seconds later I saw one single light go straight up into the air and dissappear.

My husband seemed to think they were airplanes but I quickly informed him that planes can't fly that close without crashing into each other. I do believe what I saw was not of this world.

Diamond shaped UFO with red lights I was out with my friend in this neighborhood on the lake stargazing. There is a bridge (high up, stretches over the lake) that we were on where you can see almost everything. My friend points at the sky at these hovering bright red lights.

There was no flashing that we could see at this point. It moved one way, then it would stop, then slowly keep moving. It gets closer and we continue to watch it.

There ended up being 4 lights, in a diamond shape. One of these lights inconsistently blinked white. The object continued to move across the sky in across very odd way, speeding up and slowing down, moving around sporadically, and definitely not traveling in a direct flight path like an airplane would.

It was not a helicopter. It was not a drone. It was not at at very high altitude and there was absolutely NO sound.

We continued to watch it fly and then suddenly rapidly (EXTREMELY fast) fly down and our view was obstructed by a house. We got in the car and drove towards where we last saw it, but it was no where to be seen.
