Triangular UFO seen by family of 6 just south of Des Moines on I35.
After leaving Des Moines, Iowa on I35 south I noticed 2 bright lights to the east. It looked like bright car lights but didn't look like they were moving.
I then thought it was a tower with lights on it.
It then was moving towards us. It was about 1/4 mile away and about the height of the red beacon towers for planes. Me, my wife and 4 kids were watching this. Then about 50-100 yards before reaching I35 it turned north and we could see the bottom. It was a perfect triangle shape with lights at the points that were not blinking and 3 lights in about halfway from the flat sides to the middle that were flashing. It turned from flat to its side pretty fast but at a slow speed. It then was out of my view but the kids watched it until it was gone.
Last seen heading north towards Des Moines.
