My husband, 9 yr. old daughter were in our truck heading to Las Vegas from Phoenix. We were on highway 93, heading north just through Wickenburgh, Az, just past where the 60 turns into highway 93 (Around mile marker 171) We saw a big single bright orangish/gold light in the sky - it caught our attention.

All of a sudden, off to the left hand side [11 o'clcok position in the horizon] - the one light horizontally multiplied into 3 and then 5 lights [very much reminiscent of the "Phoenix Lights" back in 1997 - but on a much smaller scale] and back to 1 and then ~ disappeared. It happen again 30 seconds later off to the right-hand side [1 o'clock position of the horizon]. Again, the 1 multiplied into 2, then 3, then 5 lights - back to 1 and then disappeared.

By this time my husband ((name deleted)), and I were really excited about what we saw so my 9 yr. old daughter, ((daughter's name deleted)), in the back seat was wanting to see it too.

At this moment we decided try to find a place to pull the car off to the side of the road, hoping to capture it on video. While she was also looking out the window it happened one more time off to the far left side of our vehicle, probably the 9 o'clock position on the horizon. Unfortunately by the time we found a place to pull the truck over, the lights had vanished and didn't appear anymore.

However, we did see & hear two incredibly fast move military jets moving in tandem in the sky. We knew they were military because of the rate of speed, and the unmistakable roar they make. They tore through the sky directly above where the lights had been and continued on south out of our sight.

Then, it was over. ((husband's name deleted)) and I looked for the next mile marker after we started down the road again and it was no. 190. I am a nightly Coast to Coast listener so naturally I knew to notate all of these details so I could submit a report to you.

It was our own personal "Phoenix Lights" incident; which by the way we also saw back in 1997. We were driving on the 202 Freeway at the time and observed the lights hanging in the sky.

Anway, that's our story.

Thank you, ((name deleted)) Phoenix, Az
