Location of Sighting: Brierley Hill, West Midlands
Date of Sighting: 05/06/2010
Time: 2255

Witness Statement: We were just going to sleep when [Name Removed] noticed a bright orange light in the sky. The first thing that came to mind was a large aircraft on fire but when we pulled back the net curtains there was a very large object in the night sky surrounded by other smaller objects it seemed to send a orange light towards some of the smaller objects and then they all disappeared very quickly.

I, too, am aware about the chinese lanterns theor, but unless the lantern was several hundred feet in length, and can move at great speeds and turn unlike any aircraft I am aware of. The window was ajar and there was no noise whatsoever coming from the objects. By the time I found my phone to take a picture they were nearly gone, but managed to get a photo, again probably not a good quality but who knows. I checked at local police station and no other reports were logged.
