“Fran Ridge:
March 4, 1988; Eastlake ,
Ohio
8:35 p.m. local. This is a very interesting close
encounter and one of FUFOR’s top cases. And, this one may have a nuclear
connection. A huge, gunmetal gray, football-shaped object that was rocking back
and forth was first observed by five people. Then the object began moving;
swinging one end toward the shore and descending. The witnesses became
frightened, ran back to their car and fled. When they got home, the object was
still visible from a window that faced the lake. The object moved out over the
ice and continued to descend, with red and blue lights now flashing in sequence
along its lower edge. At one point triangular objects darted around the parent
craft, then headed east toward the Perry nuclear power plant. One witness
called the Eastlake
police to report a UFO, and was finally referred to the Coast Guard. Coast
Guard personnel saw the object and reported that it appeared to be landing on
the lake.”
NICAP.org presents a U.S. government (U.S. Coast Guard)
document that pertains to the case.
