Three triangular forms move quickly and in sync before disappearing, planes seemingly chasing it!

I believe I have had a UFO sighting on this date, Friday, January 11, 2008, at approximately 9:00pm. I was outside with my brother playing Frisbee golf while we walked his dog. As he was explaining the basis of the next hole and I couldn’t pay attention to his words; all I could do was look at the sky. Normally in the city you’re lucky to see a handful of stars and the only constellation you can ever count on is Orion’s belt. Tonight though, outside of my brother’s apartment, I couldn’t help but stare at the sky in amazement.

I don’t know if it was the clear sky or my brother’s neighborhood but the sheer magnitude and number of stars was breathtaking. As I was scanning the sky I noticed the odd triangular shaped light forms. They were moving quickly, faster than the planes. They were so low and clear and as I tried to keep my eyes on them they jetted through the sky and disappeared.

The whole time I kept shouting at my brother to look at them but they were moving so fast that he was never able to fix his eyes on them. The three lights just totally disappeared. I ran down the block looking for them, but they were gone. I stayed outside scanning the sky for ten minutes after, looking for the lights or anything that I might have mistaken this spectacle to be. I can’t think of any other explanation for it.

It was three triangular light forms, flying in formation. They hovered for a tiny bit, which is when I spotted them. Intrigued and confused by what I saw, my eyes followed the shaped as they sped through the sky. I tried to absorb as much as I could about them before they disappeared. Each triangular formation was actually composed of smaller lights creating the triangular form. They moved together perfectly and quickly and I know they weren't planes because I could see planes moving in the vicinity. It almost seemed like they were chasing the formation; it was amazing.
