Occupant (silhouette) seen. Silver domed disc with transparent cupola on top, hovered 10 feet over farm. Buzzing noise.
An object was observed. Occupants of the craft were seen. One silver domed disc, about 20 feet across, was observed by two male witnesses, typical age 10, for over 15 minutes (McMahon). A buzzing sound was heard. A silhouetted being was seen.
Roland McMahon, a 10-year old boy, saw a silver colored UFO 15 ft in diameter, with a windowed cupola on top, hovering 10 ft over the farm area. "On its bottom there was a green triangular area, with a dark red area inside that they boy said resembled a human shaped profile." It made a buzzing noise like an electric motor. When Mrs. McMahon, who also saw the object, drove into the driveway, it flew away, kicking up dust with a wind. It was in view for about 15 minutes.
