-------------------------------------------
|
|
|
|
John Williams of KIRO television called CUFON - UFO Information Service with a
|
|
report that he had received from a witness near Burien, WA. The witness
|
|
reported seeing some kind of object in the southern sky coming at him with
|
|
smoke coming out the back of it and appeared to break apart. There was one
|
|
light and it then broke off in like 4-5 different off shoots with smoke on
|
|
each one. The witness and his mom with several others said it appeared to be
|
|
a parachute that went right over their heads, but it was moving very very
|
|
quickly. The metal object with a parachute on it went over their heads and
|
|
the other off shoot pieces went in different directions. What appeared to
|
|
be a parachute the witness did not think was as it went over his head very
|
|
very fast. John Williams also stated that after receiving the report he
|
|
called the Sea-Tac duty officer at FAA and he said that it could have been in
|
|
cloud lightning because there were no military aircraft in the area at that
|
|
time.
|
|
|
|
CUFON - UFO Information Service then called the witness to get his direct
|
|
report. The witness stated that he was over at his parents when he saw a
|
|
bright light coming out of the south. He thought it was one of the lights
|
|
from a jet coming into the airport at first as they are right by the airport,
|
|
but realized it couldn't be because the Sea-Tac Burien airport would be
|
|
farther to the east. Then his mom came out and he pointed it out and her
|
|
description of it was the best, she described it as a sparkler where you are
|
|
looking at the center of it with smoke coming off it. As the bright light
|
|
started dimming you could still see the smoke. It seemed to break up and he
|
|
lost track of all the other pieces save one. It looked as if they had flown
|
|
off it. The one big piece came sailing out and it looked like a parachute
|
|
with something on the end of it heading from south to north slightly northeast
|
|
over their heads at what seemed like an incredible velocity. It looked, shape
|
|
wise, like a parachute. The fact that it seemed to be going so fast made him
|
|
think it had to be some kind of space craft or something. He never saw it
|
|
descend, it just shot across the sky. Observation was 30-45 seconds.
