The article reports on the 8 March 1994 South West
Michigan UFO sightings.
Quote from the article:
“Witness accounts and radar images of
fast-moving lights over Lake Michigan are being examined by UFO investigators.
Leo Grenier, who is in charge of the National
Weather Service office in Muskegon, said radar data turned up a fast-moving
phenomenon over Lake Michigan off South Haven late Monday night and that he
notified the National UFO Reporting Center.
‘(Witnesses) were talking about red
and green sets of lights to the south, oscillating,’ Grenier said. ‘The lights
did some rather erratic movements at times.’
Grenier said a weather service radar
operator ‘did pick up echoes in the approximate location of the sighting and moving
in the same manner as described by those seeing it on the ground.’
He said radar showed the object,
about 15,000 feet
in altitude, zipped from South Haven to about 10 miles off shore in 10
seconds.
Tower personnel at Muskegon County
Airport saw what appeared to be aircraft flying in formation. Among the
witnesses was a Holland police officer.
Walter Andrus, international director
of the Mutual UFO Network in Seguin, Texas, said Thursday that four investigators
were reviewing the sightings.”
