1984 night Newcastle, Washington 4 witnesses

Account

The witness and about three friends were in a large tree fort at night when the witness noticed a steady porch-like light in the distance. Over about forty minutes it moved directly through the trees toward them until it appeared as a hovering pyramid shape with six lights about twelve feet off the ground. When it came within about sixty yards they fled the fort and ran home, never discussing it again.
