UFO Photographed and Filmed Over Los Angeles, CA USA 17th January 2011

Object Said to Be Similar to 'The Phoenix Lights' of 1997

The Portland Journal
Los Angeles (LA) - In the early hours of 17th of January 2011 witnesses caught on camera images of an object or a UFO in the skies of Los Angeles, California USA.

The footage was taken between 5.30am and 6.15am and is proving baffling for UFO investigators.

The images almost certainly do not show a conventional aircraft, be it a passenger aircraft or a helicopter. One witness who wishes to remain anonymous saying; "it was almost Phoenix UFO all over again," referring to the Phoenix Lights phenomenon of March 13, 1997 in Arizona. On that occasion had been seen by thousands of people across two US states of Arizona and Nevada, also the Mexican state of Sonora.

The lights over LA on January the 17th 2011 have been recorded on both video and still photograph, The Portland Journal has been given access to one of the images as seen above.

In the video that has been posted on YouTube (link at end of article) of the object, the apparent lights can be seen hovering just on the outskirts of the city at around 5.45am, whilst another object approaches as if moving towards its mothership.

Witnesses say the objects dimensions must have been huge given the distance from which the shots had been taken, probably about 100 to 200 feet across, and shaped similar to a triangle or boomerang.

There has been no confirmation from military sources of any activity either by themselves or by any unidentified craft in the vicinity.

The two objects in question hovered over LA for approximately 30 minutes, occasionally disappearing from view only to reappear again in virtually the same location.

The smaller of the two objects appeared to be gliding over LA for a few minutes before returning to join the larger object after a short period of time.

What can be ascertained is the lights cannot be blamed on flares like with the original Phoenix event in Arizona. The lights stay pretty much stationary and do not appear to fall from the sky or get obstructed from view by mountains.

The witness said that he had never quite seen anything like the lights from the UFO, stating that he is a skeptic but what he has seen could have changed his mind.

The timing of this UFO event over LA is similar to many other UFO events over the United States and Mexico on the same night, and one of many that have happened since the beginning of December 2010 to present. The last month has seen a surge in UFO sightings bringing many people to speculate the coming of UFO 'Disclosure' sometime in 2011.
