Description: Listen to Clip of Witness Interview (MP3)

The witness called four days after his sighting occurred. I called him back the following day. The witness said that he originally reported the sighting to the police. The police were not interested and said that they had not received any other sighting reports on that night. The witness was quite upset during and after his sighting. He was too afraid to get out of car. He and his wife were traveling south on Landing Avenue. (See map above.) He saw bright blue lights behind street lights straight ahead. At that point the lights began approaching. He stopped his car to get a better look. He said that the object contained several very bright blue lights. Smaller lights surrounded the larger lights. He saw a large black mass between the lights. The object was moving right over the street lights northward on Landing Avenue. The object passed directly overhead. He said that the object emitted no sound.

The object continued its northward trajectory and caused the street lights to malfunction as it passed over them. The lights would flicker, dim, brighten and then return to normal once the object passed. He says that he hasn't slept much since the incident and has very little appetite. His wife was with him, but didn't see as much because she is handicapped and was in a seat restraint unable to move.

Note: The witness sounded quite sincere and was very affected by what he saw. We have received no other reports from the area on the night of the sighting. The witness said that traffic was quite light on the night of the sighting.
