BEND, Ore. - Millions greeted the New Year with the usual: Fireworks.
Others say they saw something very unusual.
"It would stop, and hover, and be all shimmery like a forest-fire color," Bend resident Pam Stewart recalled Thursday.
Stewart said she saw something on New Year's Eve that she'd never seen before.
She describes a floating, zipping and flashing light she saw outside her home, off in the distance -- a flying object she said couldn't be a lantern or fireworks.
"It was moving horizontal, and then it would just be off," Stewart said. "I was amazed."
. . . in Oregon, Eric Whitford took a photo from his Medford home and shared it with NewsChannel 21 on Facebook.
It shows a bright, shiny and round object in the sky.
"No this is not fireworks," he wrote on his Facebook post. "This object came in from the left of us and then just stopped, another appeared and both disappeared.
This was really amazing to watch." . . .
