Account

When the guest was 16 or 17, he was with about 20 people partying on a friend's flat roof late at night. They watched a light moving like a satellite that stopped, changed direction, bounced around the sky, then accelerated away much faster. About 10 to 15 minutes later three dark, quiet, unmarked helicopters flew low over the house toward the light's direction.
