Reported: 2023-01-22 14:13 Pacific
Duration: Drove by it
No of observers: 2

Location: Griswold (near North Stonington border), CT, USA
Location details: Was seen while driving by farm at the crossroads of Route 201 & Route 165 in Griswold

Shape: Rectangle

My daughter and I observed a brightly lit object hovering around 100 feet above the ground behind the trees on the side of route 201.

It was on a December night in 2021 that my 14 year old daughter and I had picked up my 24 year old (at the time) daughter from work and dropped her off at my mother's in Gales Ferry. We then drove home and as I made a left hand turn onto route 201, we observed some very bright lights on the left side hovering behind the trees on the farm. My daughter said she saw it as a rectangle with extremely bright lights on it while I just saw the extremely bright lights. I believe there was a car coming behind me so I drove about 100 feet ahead to a road on the right and turned around to go back and it was gone. I had also rolled my window down in the truck to hear but there wasn't any sound. My daughter was in shock, not believing it has just disappeared, I think she may have screamed. I turned the truck around and drove home, about 4 minutes down the road.
