Air Force says alleged Texas UFO sighting was fighter jet training

WASHINGTON (CNN) - Ten Air Force Reserve F-16 fighter jets were the cause of the lights seen over parts of central Texas earlier this month that many believed to be UFOs, according to an Air Force Reserve news release Wednesday.

Several people in the area saw lights moving fast across the night sky. The Air Force initially reported it had no aircraft flying that night, which left people wondering what they saw.

Wednesday, an Air Force Reserve statement from the Naval Air Station Fort Worth Joint Reserve Base said it made a mistake in its initial reporting, and that there were planes in the area that night.
