UFO sighting near Palm Springs, California (2013)

2013 about 11 o'clock at night Palm Springs, California 1 witness

Account

The witness was swimming alone late at night in a condo complex pool facing mountains. A very bright blue-white light appeared above a peak where no light had been, followed by multiple small dim lights moving erratically on the slope that then went out at once. The large light then shot upward and vanished, frightening the witness who fled the pool.
