NUFORC Sighting 08109

Occurred: 1994-06-01 22:00 Local
Reported: 1999-06-22 00:00 Pacific
Duration: 2 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Montgomery, AL, USA

Shape: Triangle
Characteristics: Lights on object

I was coming back to my college dorm at Auburn University at Montgomery -AUM (after grocery shopping one night) and I saw "something" hovering over the AUM watertower (the watertower is really TALL and HUGE). There were 3 white lights spaced in a triangular pattern and I believe the lights were circular in shape. There was absolutely no sound. I began to franticly flash my high beams and low beams over and over again. I wanted the object to notice me so that it would leave the watertower. As I was about a mile away from the object (north of the object), it began to move away in a southern direction. There were no colored lights whatsoever. I thought to myself, why on earth would an object be hovering over a huge watertower within an eighth of a mile of a university. I could not actually see the shape of the craft because it was pitch black night. However, since the lights were triangularly spaced apart, I assume that the craft itself was triangular. I told my mom and girlfiend about this incident but I have never reported it to any ufo agency until now. The weird thing about that night was that it was real quiet. By that I mean I was the only one on that road (no other vehicles) and there was strange silence. I will never, ever forget that night.
