They said the 'UFO' over New York was just balloons... so how do they explain the mirror image over El Paso?

It could, of course, just be an amazing coincidence. First New York was gripped by sightings of UFOs in the sky last week. The fears were quickly debunked by the claim that the 'UFOs' were actually balloons released from a nearby school. But this weekend lights forming a mirror image of the pattern seen in the sky over New York have been seen in El Paso, Texas - immediately sparking speculation that the little green men have moved down south. Witnesses in El Paso flooded local police stations and newsrooms with phone calls. Many reported seeing the same sequence of events in the night sky. First one light appeared to cascade from the heavens, separating into three, each with a tail behind it. Then they are seen solidifying into three dots forming a triangle - a triangle that was the mirror image of the three 'balloons' in New York. Next a fourth light appeared, the lights appearing to hover in the air - and then, suddenly, they all went out. Because it was dark, it seems unlikely that these lights are balloons. The lights were captured on video and have sparked a frenzy of speculation, especially after a local news station pointed out the simliarity between them and the sightings over New York last week. The mysterious objects hovered over the West Side of the Big Apple, causing thousands of New Yorkers to wonder what exactly they were seeing. (Daily Mail)
