Jet-like craft with loud noise and strange lights in over southern RI

At the above mentioned time and date I was in my house when I heard a loud jet-like sound approaching and getting louder. I went outside; sky was clear with stars, cold and dry. I saw the craft making the sound; it moved in a jet-like fashion and had several red lights only around its front. As it came from the east, it circled over my house then proceeded easterly again; as it did the lights flashed to all white, then back to all red non blinking. I could only guess at the full shape of the craft, which appeared chevron-shaped. It headed east over the town of Narragansett and I could still hear its roar. I also saw a small white circular light accompanying the craft for a brief time as it headed east. The craft then veered away from the paralleling white orb. I then called the South Kingstown police. A dispatcher/policeman took my call seriously and said I was the second caller to this phenomenon. He had no explanation. The rest of the evening was! quiet. I did not call my neighbor as I didn't want to alarm his kids.
