Description: I saw a red light moving slowly in an up, down and side to side motion.
Note: The witnesses saw a red light, but the video footage shows that the object had a light on one end and was cigar shaped. The inverted image (edge detection analysis) reveals the shape of the object.
Update – October 17, 2015: Analyst Dave Mason looked at the video. He writes:
I reviewed the video and it’s a recording of street lights reflecting off a wooden beam of a porch. After enhancing the luminance and contrast of the video more detail is visible. A short and compressed version is attached. You can clearly see the street lights are reflecting off one beam and you can also see additional beams which make up the roof of the porch structure. The witnesses are mistaken with their observation.

Looks like a reflection off of water to me. Nothing to indicate a horizon.
