UFO news article:
“Roundtown Policemen Sees UFO”
16 October 1973
(The Circleville
Herald, Ohio)
The whole article:
“Once again the sighting of unidentified flying
objects has been reported in the skies over Circleville with area residents and
two city police officers seeing the strange phenomenon Monday night [15 October
1973 (?)] and early Tuesday morning [16 October 1973 (?)]. Donald M. smith, lot
19, Wilson Trailer Court,
called local authorities 4:23 a.m. Tuesday to report a large golden object in
the sky southwest of the city. He told officers he had spotted the unidentified
object earlier when he left work in Columbus.
When he arrived home, he once again spotted the UFO as he got out of his car.
Ptl. Ron Smith and Mike Golden were dispatched to the
scene and both reported seeing a large golden object in the sky. It appeared to
be emitting a large red plume and was moving in circles as the officers viewed
it.
The officers notified base operations al Lockbourne
Air Base of the sighting but did not receive any explanation.
Myra LeRoy of Stoutsville, an X-ray technician at Berger Hospital
also reported the sighting of a strange object in the sky.
She stated that she was on her way to work from
Stoutsville about 8 p.m. when she noticed a sphere, emitting a dull light, in
the southwest sky. It appeared to be much lower than the stars.
She left work at the hospital at 9:15 p.m. and the
object could still be seen in the sky to the east.
‘It frightened me,’ she said, ‘and I certainly don’t
ever want to get any closer to one.’ ”
