Full Description of Event/Sighting: I lived at the Bridge Guest House on one side of the bridge, I was looking for some paper work for a couple of guests who were with me in the lobby and at the desk. All of a sudden out of the corner of my eye I became aware of an extremely bright light in my peripheral vision. I didn't take much notice at first, but upon standing up the light got brighter and the couple who were with me at the time remarked on it also.

We all wondered what it might be, thinking it might be a helicopter or aero plane light, we then went out onto the bridge to watch this light when suddenly it split into three lights. When it did this, the three lights were all at the same brightness, but not as bright as the single light.

What happened next was very impressive, one light remained stationary, but the other two started zig zagging across the full range of sky that we could see. By now people coming down Angel Hill to the bridge, also joined us to watch the display. Now six of us were watching this display we all guessed at what was going on and as far as I can remember, we all agreed that none of us had seen any sort of aircraft that could zoom across the sky, stop zig zag at such fast speeds, in fact we didn't know if any plane could do that.

The two lights continued zig zagging and the static light got brighter, then the two lights zoomed to the static light and disappeared. The one light then moved away slowly at first, then just zoomed off in an instant. The whole episode lasted about 5 minutes maybe longer.

We all discussed what to do next, so I said that maybe we should call the police, my residence being the nearest. We went there and called the local police station, well you can probably guess what the policeman did who answered, he just laughed and said it was probably a military operation.

After that, every one left.
