A black and grey, oval type craft, SUV sized, it had tubes and what appeared to be antennae sticking out of the top and bottom.

I didn't initially see the craft. My girlfriend, saw it first from the passenger’s seat, looking through my window, the driver’s window. She said, "What's that?" I looked once and saw a black helicopter and told her, "Ah, it’s just a helicopter" and then she said, "That's no helicopter." I looked again and there it was...

Of course, I went through all the possible explanations in my mind to explain it, such as; a giant balloon, a drone, a blimp, etc.... I pulled over (right in front of the old Phoenix Village Mall) and we looked at it for maybe a few (2) minutes. It didn't move, it didn't do anything. I eventually felt unsafe and we drove on home.

The UFO was mostly black, at first glance. Looking closer it looked like it was made of junk! Metallic, but like it had been put together in a scrap yard.. There were also black tubes sticking out of the top and bottom along with what looked like old timey (1940's) TV antennae, sticking out of the top and bottom as well,. It was very sinister and strange looking...it was pieced together by spare parts, not human at all.. it made no noise, it was just floating there.. We left it, it was still floating, I didn't look back...

I later (the next day) went to my brother's house, and he told me he had heard people reporting black UFO's all over town on his police scanner.
It was never on the news, or in the paper and I have not seen any reports of this event.

Maybe someone else in the area who saw this, will also report in the future after reading this. I know there were others.
