ABSTRACT: The reporter states "I was camping on Snake River.  I awoke to relieve myself. I looked up into the east night sky after walking back to tent. I saw this. It was by a military training grounds Camp Riply MN. I shot at it with a 30.30 cal rifle the lights went dim and disappeared, making no sound and was very weird. Why I shot at it I was scared and calm all at the same time. I laid down in my tent and when I told my ex-father in law I shot at a ufo, he laughed at me and said OK why would you shoot at it?  I could not answer that. I felt embarrassed to tell him at all."
