Location: Pittsburgh, PA, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Changed Colo

The object hovered at about 100 feet very bright white lights that would change intensety and every now and then a red light would join in moved from one side of the river to the other

I wittnesed this object hovering at about 100 feet 200 yards away with no sound. In a stationary position its lights would change position,intencey, and turn to a red on ocasion. I watched for about 5 min. then the light faded and showed back up over the river with in a min. My self and the others were on our way in to a class we are takeing so that we can be confermed on Easter.It was unexpected and we did have class so we went in for about an hour. When we came back out it was, to our surprize, across the river above the hill moving back and forth Still with the patern of bright lights changeing intentcy and ocasionaly turning red because of the odd movement and light we knew it was the same object. I got in my car hopping to catch up to it and get a better view but by the time I got down to the river I saw the lights one last time about a 1/4 mile away over the river they got realy bright then nothing. That was the last time I saw it.If some one could e-mail me I would like to know if any one else saw it. This is the first time I have seen any thing like this. I just want to know what it was. Thank you
