Two big, round balls of fire hovering over beloit, Wi near the South Beloit border

My daughter, son, and I were sitting in the car in front of our house when she started saying "mom there's 2 meteors coming towards us".

I jumped out of the car to see them and starred in amazment, realizing they weren't meteors but were bright red or orange balls of fire that seemed to be following each other like they were playing. Each ball kept moving ahead of the other until they stopped right in front of us and just hoovered there for about 5 more minutes.

We saw an airplane coming towards them and all of a sudden one of the firballs started to get lighter, then darker again, and lighter until it was no longer visible and then the other one did the same until both were gone completely! I waited to see if they'd come back into sight but didn't and my neighbor also was outside and seen them as well. I do beleive what we all saw was 2 ufo's and have never been so scared in my life!

NUFORC Note:

Date may be wrong. Source of report may have intended to write 11/05/2009, not 10/05/2009. We have changed the date, but have no way to confirm our suspicion, given that the party elected to remain totally anonymous, and provided no contact information. PD
