Shape: Light

We saw 3 red lights in the Eastern sky traveling slowly in a straight line to the southeast. They then shifted into an L shape and held that position for a while. Then they formed a triangle. One of the lights then slowly seemed to decend or drop away. The other two then slowly just disappeared. This was approx. 8:10pm. At about 9:15pm a few of us were out and saw a single red light that traveled a short distance and then disappeared. There was a helicopter and an airplane in the area at the time and these red lights didn't resemble either one.
