Location of Sighting: Anstey leicester
Date of Sighting: 11 04 2010
Time: 21 20hrs

Witness Statement: I'm only making this statement as when I checked this site yesterday, there was no similar statements. But now there's 3 or 4.

My sighting was almost the same as the others in that the object was an orb shaped bright light, covered a large distance in no time at all, silently and there wasn't a a cloud in the sky anywhere.

My first thought was a comet as it seemed to have a stubby tail as it moved away from me. But then it just stopped & hung in the sky. Now the other difference I noted apart from it appearing to be a single as opposed to double orb, was that as it hung in the sky it must have rotated somehow to reveal what I can only describe as a conical shaft/beam of light, again short & stubby. As I pulled away from my drive the thing set off moving again but at almost 90 degrees from its original path. I thought hell, this thing is following me, but when I got to the end of my road & turned 90 degrees myself, it was nowhere to be seen.

Until I got on to the Anstey section of the A46 where there are massive expanses of open countryside. It was definitely still in the sky. I saw it in perspective with the stars & with other EMA traffic & it was certainly not any kind of conventional aircraft.
