UFO sighted over U.S - Mexico border town.

On 11-24-2003, at approximately 1920hrs, in Laredo, Texas a UFO was seen in the southwestern sky. The UFO seemed to be suspended in the sky in the vicinity of the Mexican city of Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas, across the Rio Grande river from Laredo, Texas. The UFO was the shape of a circle and gave off a bright white glow, though not shiny or glaring. Several witnesses intitially confused it with an airplane on approach to Laredo International airport. However, the UFO´s glow suddenly intensified, with a slight light blue tinge, and it appeared to expand its diameter (this may have been the visual effect of the glow). The object then moved at an incredible rate of speed, at approximately a 45 degree angle upward and in a southwesterly direction into Mexico. And with a second burst of speed the object disappeared into the night sky. At approximately 1927hrs, two aircraft flying in formation, coming from the northeast (possibly Kingsville Naval Air Station) and at a very high altitude followed the direction of the UFO´s flight path. These jets crossed into Mexican airspace. This event wss witnessed by 12 Federal Officers.
