Close encounter with a an unidentified craft and its occupants. One object was observed by a male witness on a hill. Two beings were seen.
Dozens of residents (possibly 200 in all) of the Coenze neighborhood saw the descent of a "mystery airplane" on Maxambona Hill, falling in an unusual manner, slower than usual and appearing to be "controlled." Among the many witnesses was an elderly man and his children, whom he told to go immediately to the landing site to assist possible casualties. As he watched hundreds of townspeople converge upon the hill, he saw "two beings come out of the craft," which seemed to be slowly "slowly moving like a wing" which was shifting slightly. As the first of the people neared the site, the object and its occupants vanished abruptly from sight; when they arrived there was nothing to be found. No one heard any engine noise when the "plane" landed, and investigations at the site by members of the military police disclosed no wreckage.
