It was April 25th in the morning at around 2:45 a.m I couldn't sleep so i went out side to smoke and as i stepped out side i could hear the faint sound of the train passing through town so as i could no longer hear the train i exhaled smoke upwards as i looked at the sky at that point i froze and was awestruck at what i saw it was a very large object of no sound and it blinked multiple colors of red blue green yellow and various shades of white it blinked mostly red and the lights circled the craft in an odd formation it hovered in the sky for 3 minutes in time at least before it flared up red and vanished into thin air the whole time i was watching it i was thinking please don't disappear please don't disappear because i have heard story's of the hyper jump and after it vanished i was not done smoking my cigarette and i flicked it half way through and ran back inside into the apartment startled and scared of what i just saw i could no longer sleep in a fear that i might get abducted i felt as i was watching this object it knew i was watching it i only heard story's of this and could not believe what i saw so as my insomnia keeps me up i was curious to look outside so i opened the shades and watched outside for a while before i had the heart to go back out side it must of been a half hour after the sighting i seen a jet fly by in the same direction that the ufo was hovering toward and my story doesn't end yet i was trying to sleep on the couch but could not as i kept looking out the window at this time it had to be 4 or 4:30 as i was looking out the window i saw a bright silver light flare up and vanish in a blink of an eye you could miss it so still not able to sleep i go outside again to have another cigarette and it had to be 5 and the sun was about the rise i could see daylight on the horizon so i am on the front porch smoking again and i look to my right and i see a small blinking metallic orb it had to be a mile away in distance so i run inside and grab binoculars and go back out it was still flying across and as i peer in the binoculars i see its dropping orbs out of it and they start multiplying in that fashion it multiplied into about 20 individual objects i watched them float stationary and jump all over erratically for 30 minutes until the sun came up and they were hardly visible to the naked eye this is the first time i have seen unknown objects in the detroit lakes minnesota area
