Close encounter with a an unidentified craft and monstrous occupants. Multiple independent witnesses.

One white ball was observed by numerous male witnesses, typical age 28, as reported to the police, on the shore for 30 minutes (Ingargiola; Schwartz). One 6.5-foot-tall broad-shouldered being was seen.

Police officer Frank Ingargiola and newspaper reporter Sonny Schwartz saw over the Atlantic City surf a spherical white luminous object with a bright haze around it. As they drove along the Boardwalk, it seemed to follow them. They called other police cars; a sergeant was able to observe it in the distance with binoculars. The witnesses also noticed a very tall man with "immense broad shoulders" lurching down the Boardwalk in front of the car; he wore a 3/4 length suede coat and a 10-gallon Stetson hat.
