Subject: UFO Sighting - Location: Vinton, IA - Zip Code: 52349 - Date: June 10, 2001 - Time: 10:45 PM Witnesses: 2 - Objects Shape: Light - Number of objects: 1 - Object had lights Event Description: It was a night where we (My girlfriend and I) could see the stars but not a lot of them. We were on a trampoline
looking at the sky and we saw a light that was moving around in the sky really fast in a triangle pattern. It was a little bigger than the stars looked in the sky. It would move in the triangle pattern for a while then move
someplace where we couldn't see it and it would move back into the pattern. It was moving really fast and we
could see the line of light as it made the move. My girlfriend and I both noticed it at the same time. I have seen UFOs in the past but this was the first time I actually had somebody else with me to confirm what I was seeing.

Additional Info: Next to Target, above the trees - Witnesses: 2 - Objects Shape: Other - Number of objects: 1 Event Description:
I was with my girlfriend, hanging out by the river at around somewhere between 11pm & 1am. We were sitting
in the car facing east. I happened to look to the North and I saw a black object appear in the sky above the trees coming from the North, heading south toward us, at about 5mph. Then it just went to the East coming
straight at us and does something like what I would call a 90 degree turn. It was moving straight towards, us then it was going straight east above the trees.
I turned to my girlfriend and said "Did you see that ?" and she said "Big batman thing" and I said "I don't know
about batman thing, but that was cool." I got out of the car all excited looking all over the sky, and all of the sudden there was like green fog or like mist around us it was all over the parking lot around us and in a major
part of the woods and river. I looked up into the sky and believe it or not, the green mist went up to a point as far as I could see. My girlfriend got scared so we left. Top of page
