Strange object spotted above Cavendish Mall

First of all, Dr. Cleve Ziegler would like to emphasize that he is not a crazy person. In fact, he's an obstetrician-gynecologist at the Jewish General Hospital.
But he acknowledges that what he saw while driving home from surgery early yesterday will definitely seem crazy: a strange flashing object in the sky, right above the Cavendish Mall in Cote St. Luc.
Was it a UFO?
Ziegler was driving along Cavendish Blvd. about 1 a.m. when he saw the bizarre object near Kildare Rd. He parked his car and got out to get a better look, he said.
He said it was like nothing he had ever seen before. It had blue and red twinkly lights, and looked nothing like a plane or someone shining a flashlight at the sky. The sighting disturbed him, he said.
"The pattern of motion was erratic -it was moving up and down, sideways. It was not like a flying saucer, more like a couple of triangles," he said.
There was another man on the street looking up at the sky, he said. He went over and they looked at it together, agreeing that they were seeing something unusual. The man said his girlfriend also saw it and was "freaked out." Another woman in the parking lot also saw it.
Ziegler says he took out his cellphone and called 911 to report the sighting. He watched the object for about 10 minutes, then went home. Police came to interview him at home a few hours later, he said.
Montreal police said they received three calls yesterday reporting UFOs -two in Cote St. Luc and another in the east end. Officers investigated the claims, but nothing proved there was anything strange going on, Constable Daniel Lacoursiere said.
"We called the airport in Dorval and they said there was nothing on the radar in that area," he said. "In the east end, they said there may have been a chopper flying over, but nothing appeared in the Cavendish area."
Had something suspicious showed up on the radar, the case would have been transferred to the RCMP, Lacoursiere said.
Still, Ziegler is shaken and certain of what he saw.
"This left me with the deep sense that I had seen something not from this planet."
