NUFORC Sighting 110630

Occurred: 2014-06-21 21:00 Local
Reported: 2014-06-25 21:43 Pacific
Duration: 10 minutes
No of observers: 1

Location: Springfield, IL, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object

I saw 4 orange/silver/red lights and could not discern what they were, and then they vanished.

I was driving home through a residential neighbourhood about 9pm. I looked up and saw 4 lights: they were orange on top, silver in the middle, red on the bottom. I thought at first they were lights in the distance, i.e. warning lights for aircraft, or something similiar, as they seemed to be the equivalant in size, but then realized that these lights were much more near to me. I began to detour in order to get closer to them, and possibly more concretely discern what exactly they were. I zigzagged down the residential streets, keeping my eye on the lights as much as I could...but by the time I came out on a major thoroughfare, they had disappeared. I even went back and totally drove the route again, but there was nothing.
