Bright blue light hovering around old airport

My fiancé and I we’re driving home by the old Norfolk airport (basically a large empty field with a runway). She was looking up at the stars over the airport when she yelled at me to pull over. I did, and she then pointed out a blue light in the sky over the tree-line. The light was small at this distance, it hovered in place for a few seconds, then moved right, and immediately reversed direction. She started filming on her iPhone. I then decided to try and get closer to where it seemed to be hovering. I sped down a few streets trying to narrow down its location. We ended up near the Norfolk ice rink, where we found other people filming this light. We pulled over behind one car with two guys filming the light, and there was also a guy out of his van which he left in the middle of the road. There were 5 of us standing there watching this light hover directly above us, slowly moving towards the woods. The light was constantly changing direction above us. After about 3 minutes of filming, the light moved towards the woods and that was last we saw of it.

We could not make out the shape of the object due to the night sky being the only point of reference behind the light. We could make out four bright lights that seemed to be on the bottom of the object. Two were blue and two were red, giving off a purplish hue in between. The lights were in a square formation. There was absolutely no sound coming from the object. Due to all of these factors and attributes, we could not determine the size or distance of the object. It could have been large and far away, or small and up close. The whole encounter lasted approximately 15 minutes, with roughly 3 minutes of recorded video.
