| Name | Sonya W |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Me and another teammate who observed it both described it as a triangle of 3 dots of light, thinking it was a flying object like a drone with lights on it, but knew it wasn't because it was slow, then a fast streak, and the lights weren't blinking. Happened so fast it's hard to describe |
