Saw a triangle shaped craft over the river between midnight and 1 am
I am a Federal Police Officer, Aberdeen Proving Grounds,MD. Last weekend in March 2019 I was on nightshift. I parked my patrol car along the seawall of the Gunpowder River facing North-Northeast, stopped to fill out paperwork and a coffee. The weather was generally clear with hazy area on the horizon. Earlier in the evening Army National Guard UH-60 Blackhawk helicopters had been flying from the nearby airfield passing over the same area conducting "touch and go" passes. Flight ops had ceased about 2030(8:30pm). I can also observe flight traffic inti Glenn Martin State Airport across the river. I have been an aviation enthusiast all my life, I KNOW conventional aircraft. Also have flight some flight training approximately 20 years ago in single engine Cessna 152. I happened to glance up through my windshield and an angular triangle/wedge/chevron shaped "craft" seemed to appear as if from behind a cloud of which there were none. It moved w! ith absolute silence from right to left for a few seconds before disappearing the same way. It was seemed triangular or wedge shaped, difficult to tell precisely. The blunt end seemed to be the front as there was a bright white "landing light". A single red light toward the "front" was visible and a few dim white lights strung along. Again, NO SOUND. I am familiar with the engine & rotor blade sounds. The Blackhawk at that altitude would have made quite a racket. It was approximately 3 inches long held at arm's length and traveled about 6 inches. I have only confided with one other co-worker and that was recently. I have hesitated to make any sort of official report for the obvious reasons. I have also tried to convince myself that I saw a UH-60 returning late as the red position light would have been in about that same spot, but my professional training and experience and "gut" feeling says no. I do not seek publicity of any sort and consider m! yself an "open minded skeptic" on such matters. I just want to know what I saw.
