PHOENIX, AZ – The events in Arizona on March 13th, 1997 known as The PHOENIX LIGHTS, remains a mystery, however journalist David Collins has come forward with some answers. Newly released classified footage of the infamous lights depicts military craft over the Phoenix basin engaging unknown aircraft.
The Phoenix Lights were seen by thousands of Arizona residents on the evening of March 13, 1997, and 17 years after the incident, it is still a debated event. The military’s official explanation claimed the lights were flares from their aircraft. Collins footage verifies Air Force craft were present, but the other objects in the video are noticeably not military.
Collins is a freelance investigator from KWBV Phoenix, and obtained the footage during a separate investigation. Air Force officials have made no comment on the footage.
Collins has stated he will post more images and videos via his Twitter feed: @David_P_Collins
DISCLOSURE. NOW. 
Were there 2 different incedents of these lights? Because I lived there when these lights appeared but it was in 1994. I moved in 1995 so unless it happened more than once, you have the wrong year !!!

yes, there were. The first one was the huge triangle that traveled from northern AZ down across phoenix with eye witnesses all along the way.
Then after it flew on south and out of site, flairs were released later on which is what everyone who tries to debunk it focuses on and ignores the first craft.
SummerK is right on this. I was here when it happened and saw both lights I knew the second set was flares as well. I was prewarned from a guy in Prescott who called me freaking out as he watched it go over them and said it was coming my way.
According to our sources there were 5-6 separate craft over the Estrella Mountain range. The larger craft may be a separate event or smaller objects in formation.
I cannot address why you would accuse this as false. This is a segment from a full length clip. More will follow.
