The Encounter

The person recounts an encounter that took place on October 4th while driving with a friend who had just bought a car. They noticed four lights in the sky while driving near Shag Harbor. The lights changed from level to a 45-degree angle before disappearing. They reported what they thought was a plane crash to the RCMP, but the officer did not believe them. Many people gathered to watch the lights, which eventually went out. The Coast Guard and Navy divers searched the area but found nothing. The person felt that something significant happened, and they believe the government knows more than they revealed about the incident.

The account provides a detailed narrative of the witness's experience observing lights in the sky and reporting a potential plane crash.
