We noticed this thing from the car, and immediately got out because it was directly above us. We stood in the middle of the street.

This happened when I was younger, still in high school. My friends and I were noticing weird lights in the sky north of Utica, Michigan. We would watch the lights in the sky move around, we would see the normal green and red flashing lights form airliners, but some of the lights were white-ish, and moved in ways that didn't seem normal. We all joked about UFO's. Then we started to see multiple lights moving together, some had a red light with them. This happened for a couple of weeks. Spotting weird lights in the sky kind of became our thing for this time period.

We were driving near a friends house, 3 of us in the car, we noticed a light above us. The car stopped, we go out and all looked up. There was a giant black triangle right above us. I do not remember any specific sounds. I remember noticing multiple craft afterwards, that looked exactly the same, in the area, 2 or 3 more. All going southward, towards Detroit.

This happened 10 years ago, so my memory isn't up to par. I do remember a news segment from during/near the time it happened. I am fairly positive this is the news segment here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?app=desktop&v=4ummsrSFqGo. During the time stamp of 0:36-0:40 it shows some lights with a red light in between, these are very similar to what we witnessed.

I think I have reported this here before, so forgive me if I am double reporting. I just want to make sure I do my part by reporting this. With everything that is going on with disclosure, I want to do my part. While my memory of the events aren't the best, or I fail to articulate what I saw. I tried my best with this summery.

Triangle craft's that had white lights around the edge, and sometimes a red light in the middle.

The location given is exact +/- 100ft.
