Description (In Witness's Own Words): I saw two white balloons, flying side by side at a low elevation, over downtown Los Angeles California, and thought nothing of it. I then relocated them from the top of my six story building, and saw a third one. Again I thought that it was a white balloon, and noticed it was a windy clear day with clouds over the mountains and the balloon where not moving in the direction of the wind, then one of the balloons moved away from the other two which you would think if the wind blew them, they would all blow in the same direction. Suddenly the one by itself started coming toward the other two and past them in the opposite direction. A few commercial jet liners past right by them. I wonder if they saw something? They disappeared in the distance. They were not Balloons in my opinion.

Investigator's Notes: The witness has not responded to my follow-up questions.  I had posed the question to the witness if the apparent balloon like structures were rising.  I need to know to the answer to this question and other questions before attempting to make an identification.  This sighting lacks information.  Therefore no identification can be made.
