Date: 23 October, 2016.

Place: St Albans, Hertfortshire County, England.

A few days ago, on 23 October, the city of St Albans was the scene of a very unusual event.

According to an article published on British online news site Express.co.uk, two unnamed men affirmed to have seen five unidentified flying objects moving across the sky in broad daylight.

“The pair were waiting for a wheel to be changed on a car in St Albans, Hertfordshire, when the "UFO fleet" appeared from the direction of London at around 9am”, states the article.

The news also quotes the report of the sighting sent to specialised-in-UFO website MUFON.com by one of the witnesses.

“I noticed a small light up in the sky coming overhead, it looked just like a satellite and moved at a similar speed”, the witness wrote. “I was still curious as it was daylight and I have never seen a satellite pass overhead during daylight so I notified my colleague about the light and he also noticed it passing overhead”, he related.

After this first object came the others. “It was at this moment when I noticed two more lights travelling close to the first light. These two lights were close together and travelling parallel to each other as well as at the same speed”, the London resident affirmed. He also added that “all three lights were moving in roughly the same direction”.

About the characteristics of the alleged UFOs, the witness expressed: “The lights appeared way to small and distant to be any kind of airplane, especially a commercial airliner. There was also no noise whatsoever coming from the objects/lights which made me think that they weren't fighter jets”.

A few moments later, other two lights joined the group. “After taking my phone out and taking a Snapchat video of the first three lights, my colleague and myself then noticed a fourth and fifth light passing overhead. They were again travelling at roughly the same speed and in the same direction”, the unnamed observer commented. He claimed that “the fifth and final light to pass overhead was a distinct red colour and noticeably different from the rest of the lights”.

Finally, both witnesses continued looking at the objects “until they were too far away to make out”.

EXCLUSIVE: FIVE UFOs, including red one, seen flying over London in broad daylight

TWO men were left dumbstruck after witnessing FIVE UFOs flying overhead.

The pair were waiting for a wheel to be changed on a car in St Albans, Hertfordshire, when the "UFO fleet" appeared from the direction of London at around 9am.

One of the unnamed men, who managed to film the first three unidentified objects, has filed a report on the sighting for the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON), which investigates such cases.

He said in the report: "I noticed a small light up in the sky coming overhead, it looked just like a satellite and moved at a similar speed.

"I was still curious as it was daylight and I have never seen a satellite pass overhead during daylight so I notified my colleague about the light and he also noticed it passing overhead.

"It was at this moment when I noticed two more lights travelling close to the first light, these two lights were close together and travelling parallel to each other as well as at the same speed, all three lights were moving in roughly the same direction."

He said his collage also saw the same lights.

He added: "The lights appeared way to small and distant to be any kind of airplane, especially a commercial airliner.

"There was also no noise whatsoever coming from the objects/lights which made me think that they weren't fighter jets.

"After taking my phone out and taking a Snapchat video of the first three lights, my colleague and myself then noticed a fourth and fifth light passing overhead.

"They were again travelling at roughly the same speed and in the same direction.

"The fifth and final light to pass overhead was a distinct red colour and noticably different from the rest of the lights."

He said his college also saw the other two lights.

He added: "Neither of us could give a reasonable explanation of what we had just seen and the experience left us both baffled.

"All five lights moved off into the distance, but did not fade away like a satellite would.

"The lights stayed visible until they were too far away to make out."

MUFON, which is based in the US and is the biggest organisation in the world dedicated to UFO research, is investigating.
