Full Description & Details

The ship crossed the sky, stopped shot up about a half mile, hovered for a while and changed a multitude of colors and departed with us

At 7:15 p.m. we were heading North on I-75 just south of Cygnet, Ohio when we saw what appeared to be a meteor coming across the horizon from the east and out of space. It crossed over I-75 heading west, when an explosion or emmission of somekind, lit behind it, iluminating the craft. This event, looked not like an explosion proper, but rather orange, yellow and a sparkling gold bolt of lighting with many branches! At that moment it came to a quick stop but quite a distance from the previous enomolous event. This took all of 5 seconds. At this point we stopped the vehicle and went for the video camera. We tried to turn it on, but the battery was dead. So we pulled out binaculars we took for the trip and started watching its movements. I pulled out the binaculars and handed them to my friend Jim, and when I turned around to look back at the craft, I saw a flash of white light, and then the ship moved up approximately a half mile. That is where it stayed, until we decided to move in, and then it stayed with the car up to the Cygnet Rd. exit. At this point, the object was hovering what looked to be a hundered feet above the trees. We turned off onto the Cygnet exit, and turned left onto Cygnet. We pulled the car over on the right hand side of the road, and started to observe the craft, at this point a woman named Denise stopped in front of us and asked us if we saw the previous events. We exchanged names and numbers and watched the ship hover with the binaculars. She explained that she was on a pizza run, and she had to go, we agreed to meet back at her pizza shop after investigating the "UFO". At this point it was turning a multitude of colours, including red, blue, green, white, magenta and yellow. It was also dimming and then get brighter. So she departed, and we went in to investigate. Once we got close enough, we stopped to investigate even more. We observed it again change colours and reduce and increase in size (from dimming, we believe) All of a sudden, it became an intense red, a! nd Jim l ooked at me and said, "Tim, let's go, I don't like the way that this is looking", and as he said that I said "were going" just then, I looked at the lights in the jeep and they were starting to dim and get brighter and the dim again. I turned the jeep around and we drove as fast as we could go. We kept a eye on it upon our departure, we went back to the pizza store to meet up with Denise. She arrived, we confirmed the story to her friends at the pizza store and then told her what happend. Afterwards, we left to go and see if the ship was still there. At that point it was gone. We entered back onto the freeway, and all of a sudden we both developed pain in our abdominal region right below the rib cage. Mine was off the left side, and Jim's was more in the center. Later I looked at my side and it was inflamed and red. I am a classical piano teacher Jim is a Carpenter.

Approximately 20 people saw the object over I-75. Several were truck drivers in the area. A similar object was spotted by a former Airman over 100 miles to the north east, which was the direction the object came from in Elyria. His report is also listed on Peters websight. He spotted the object at 7:00, 15 minutes before us.

"Shooting star flies by -- 1/2 hour later we have what appears to be 8 search aircraft looking in the area.

While walking with my son during trick or treat, I saw wat appeared to be a shooting star. Nothing wrong with this, but about 1/2 hour later I see a formation of what appears to be 8 lights in the air spaced out independent of each other similar to a playing card 8 of diamonds. These moved independent of each other. It appeared to be a search team of some sort. I was just supprised to see this type of activity after a shooting star. The Cleveland airport is about 20 miles east of the area we were in and a small county airport for small private planes about 4 miles away. So I am familiar with normal air traffic in the area. I have never seen anything like this in the past."

I submitted this report to Peter Davinport of the National UFO Reporting Center
