There were two events, one at 8pm I believe (the anomalous event that maybe ~100 people saw and there's no video of) and then the flares at 9:45pm or 10pm which have videos. The journalists that tried to get info and clarify were stonewalled every step of the way, and Fife Symingron (the mayor at the time that held the press conference and brought the guy out in the alien suit) admitted to seeing them, although I think he's probably FoS.
It's easy to brush everything off if you go into it planning to do so, but if you keep digging a bit more after the seemingly obvious, you'll see that sometimes there's more than the obvious.
