Unusual, Low Flying Lights In The Sky Seen In West Concord Neighborhood: Watch
An unidentified flying object was spotted on Fisherville Road; helicopters reportedly chased the lights in the northern section of the city.

CONCORD, NH — A man from Concord recorded unusual lights, possibly a UFO, seen across the northern part of the city earlier this month that was later chased by helicopters.
On Sept. 15, Tim Cressey was outside his home smoking a cigarette around 7:30 p.m. when he saw some unusual lights in the sky above Fisherville Road Route 3 and the Sewalls Falls Road area. The lights, two red lights and a white light, were slowly moving north across the horizon. He said it was clear from the way the lights were moving, it was not a satellite or an airplane. The white light was solid and completely illuminated, but the two red lights were blinking, Cressey said.
“I had never seen anything like it before,” he said. “Whatever it was, it was big.”

Cressey went inside to get his cell phone and recorded a short clip of the lights before its battery ran out. Later, he watched the lights as they moved north until they were out of view.
About 10 minutes later, Cressey said, three helicopters, flying low, zoomed over his house, heading north.

“They were very low,” he said, “going directly to where the lights were. My house was shaking.”
Cressey posted the sighting and uploaded the video to the Mutual UFO Network website, which tracks unexplained sightings across the planet.
During the past month, according to the site, unusual bright lights, boomerang shapes, and other objects have been spotted in Bethlehem, Concord, Kingston, Manchester, Ossipee, and Portsmouth.
FlightAware.com, an airplane and helicopter tracking site that records non-clandestine airborne activity, did not record any planes or helicopters in the air during the time period before and after the lights and helicopters were seen. Sometimes, when police are on drug raids or other activities, they do not allow vehicle tracking on the site.
Amber Lagace, a spokesperson for the New Hampshire State Police, said the department’s helicopters were not in the air at the time.
The New Hampshire National Guard did not return an email request for comment on whether the department had helicopters in the city on Sept. 15.
UFOs, UAPs, and other strange phenomena have been receiving more credibility from the public during the past few years after several military personnel began speaking out about things they were seeing in the sky that often defied gravity and known physics. Earlier this year, Congress began hearings to discuss the matter.
In New Hampshire, lights in the sky and strange objects have been an irregular occurrence — from boomerang-shaped objects seen in the northern area of the city as well as southern New Hampshire to lights in the sky, too.
