MORE RESIDENTS REPORT SEEING UFO

DAMASCUS -- Several area residents have come forth with
|
|
additional information pertaining to the reported sightings of
|
|
unidentified flying objects (UFO) over the weekend of May 20 and
|
|
21. Fred Weigelt, a retired game protector, and eight fellow
|
|
game protectors, were camping Saturday evening, May 20, in Long
|
|
Eddy. The members of the group reportedly saw three lights, in
|
|
the form of a triangle, high in the sky near Pennsylvania Ridge.
|
|
The lights were reddish-orange in color and did not blink. Also
|
|
present were two steady red lights, each a football field apart
|
|
in distance. No blinking lights or strobe lights -- the type
|
|
found on standard aircraft -- could be seen.
|
|
The object did not emit any sounds, according to the group,
|
|
until it started to move slowly away at an angle. It then
|
|
emitted a low noise, much like the sound of a large electric
|
|
generator. "It was definitely not a combustion engine," said
|
|
Weigelt.
|
|
According to Weigelt, the group saw the object, or at least
|
|
the lights, at 10:32 p.m. "It was too dark out to discern the
|
|
complete shape of the object. We couldn't see an outline or get
|
|
any perception of depth. but, from the positions of the lights,
|
|
it appeared to be bigger in size than any plane or derigible I've
|
|
ever seen," he said.
|
|
For many years prior to his retirement, Weigelt was the
|
|
District Game Protector for northern Wayne County. As a trained
|
|
observer for over 34 years, Weigelt believes he has the
|
|
experience necessary to be able to distinguish the difference
|
|
between what often appears to be alien intervention and what is
|
|
really easily-explainable natural phenomena. But this time, he
|
|
was amazed at what he and the members of the group saw. "Some of
|
|
the guys outside the tarp called to the rest of us when they saw
|
|
the lights," he said. "When we got where we could see them, I
|
|
didn't know what to think. For years, anytime someone mentioned
|
|
UFOs, I thought they were crazy, but this I can't explain."
