Initial data
December 1997 - A black triangle is seen.
The large bright light, which appeared to have a black triangular wing protruding from the side, was visible over the road between the Humber Bridge and the Barnetby Top roundabout.
The "light" was spotted by two people driving from 11.30pm to midnight, flying low at high speed across the road.
Humberside Police confirmed the last time a police helicopter was on the flight was about 10pm that day.
Air traffic controllers at Humberside Airport were also unable to provide an explanation, saying the airport had closed at 9.55pm.
A Humber Coastguard spokesman said a call had been received that evening from a man who said he had seen something black coming out of the sea, about five miles off the Hornsey coast in East Yorkshire. The object was spotted at 9:44 p.m.
