| they observed the sphere. The driver signaled the UFO by blinking the |
| car headlights a couple of times, and it immediately shot toward them |
| and stopped overhead emitting a humming sound, its light illuminating |
| the terrain.After a while the object disappeared. This man and others |
| in the area later saw a large, luminous orange-red disc-shaped object |
| moving around near the ground, its light illuminating a dock, a |

| basement window, lighting up the interior of his room. The |
| neighborhood dogs were carrying on, although the usually chirruping |
| crickets in the basement were now silent. Three minutes after the |
| purple light was seen a bright white light the size and shape of a |
| baseball passed in front of the window. He heard a "scratching" sound |
| on the screen door to the backyard, and the purple and white lights |
| again came in through the window. Hearing a "tapping" nose outside, |
| the witness got up and looked out and saw a three-foot tall figure |
| carrying a purple light like a flashlight. He was standing between |
| two garbage cans. The youth yelled and dashed upstairs, just as "an |
| enormous gust of wind" hit the house. The sounds woke up two girls in |
| the house. The following morning a dark scorched mark, three feet in |
| diameter, was found on the concrete patio. (Source: David F. Webb & |

| object, and the witness felt a sensation of intense heat while the |
| object oscillated smoothly in the air. He later had a sunburn as a |
| result of his exposure to the beam. The power outage was documented |
| as occurring at the same time. (Source: Jane Thomas, UFO Newsclipping |
