Dear Sir:
I am writing you this time not in asking for information,
but in reporting to you about a UFo that I saw, along with five
other people, and two other people (whick I did not know about at
the time), ir ad The sighters names are as follows:
Initial sighter in our

Toledo, Ohio 43614 Toledo, Ohio 43609
years old 44 years old
Toledo 3614 Toledo, Ohio 43614
Toledo, hio 43614
Toledo, Chio 43609 (means of travel) from car to foot).
The object was in sight for about twenty minutes. I
know this because I kept running into the house to tell my mother
and fether about it and there was a clock right near the door.
The object as in sight continuously because two of my friends were
outside
The object was seen at r night. There were many stars
that night but no moon. No clouds were visible and the weather
was clear.

the light dimmed down bjec seemed. to hover, the light
brightened up once again t time.
The only time we lost the object was at the end of the
sighting when it slowly descende behind some houses.
At one time the object dropped toward the end of the
sighting, behind a tree branch, but came into view again almost
immediately.
At no 1 an
The object also, at no time, made any sound that could E
When the object was first sighted ts speed was an
estimated 20 MPH. 9 Then it speeded MPH and
went up away from us,
When it stopped moving away and started l going down
slowly, it was about two and one-half to three miles from us.
That is why I said it was so big.
We first sighted the object while we were traveling
N.E. on the Anthony Wayne Trail in our car. Vision was not
distorted though, because the weather was clear. We stopped the
car and got

The white
light kept of dimming out.
There was only uld during the entire
sighting.
At the time of the sighting, two other people were with
me. They both saw the object and we all agree that what we saw
was nothing ordinary. My experience in sighting UFo's is next
to zero, except for this one sighting. I have read a lot about
UFo sightings. I have talked to people that have seer them and,
are just as puzzled as I am. my brother and the other
is Steve (he is mentioned in the beginning his letter).
My I Dad wes driving wher was first sighted and nly glimpsed
the object or light at
Wayne Trail. My mothe: it part of the way to home. Both
agree that it appeared ery unusual and did not appear to be a
pon, even with the short l ook they had.
The other four sighters, along with myself, agree everything
in this report. I might add that this report is made from notes
I took on the night of the sighting. I have something detrimental
to add to this report and it is as follows:
FRAME 005 / 005paddle-gpu-200dpi
we saw ours that seemed to b irectly tied in with the object
we saw. I called him on the phone also, and he told me the
whole story. He was standing in his yard when he noticed an
object of enormous size coming in his direction out of the sky.
It was glowing and whitish red colored. It kept coming toward
him until all of a sudden it seemed be gone. Then he noticed
it wasn't gone at all its lights were just gone. It appeared
as a shadow for awhile, its lights came back on. At this
time the object was right rhead. three hundred feet up
and about the size of otball field. It hovered for awhile
then tock off in a southeasterly direction from where he was.
It climbed at what he thought 45 angle, up and
away. When it stopped climbing, he estimated the object to be
RSO tinod
be reverse object in or near the place where we
first sa his object. Mr very
convincin elieve his verbal account on what he saw.
He seemed know a great deal about modern day aircraft and
about th hey should or should not carry. I'm sorry
me awhile
to prepare ewrite it to the best of my ability.
An answer to what - we have seen would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
Toledo, Ohio 43614
