Occupants of the craft were seen. An abduction of a witness was reported. Electromagnetic effects were noted. Witness reported that a period of time could not be accounted for. A witness later died.

One metallic disc, about 80 feet across, was observed in clear weather by one male 32-year-old military witness in a desert for 90 minutes. A high-pitched sound was heard. A 4.7-foot-tall grey being, wearing a coverall, was seen.

Air Force Sergeant Charles Moody was watching the Perseid meteors when a 50 foot diameter dull metal colored disc "dropped" down out of the sky and hovered at a height of 15-20 ft about 100 ft away. It glowed slightly, and wobbled like a top. When it became stationary, a buzzing sound began. To the right of its center was a rectangular lighted area in which human shaped forms could be seen moving about. Frightened, Moody tried to start his car, but the vehicle would not start. The time was 0245A, leaving nearly an hour and a half unaccounted for. Subsequently his memory of the time lapse came back. The car had been enveloped in a glowing mist; 2 beings glided toward it from the craft. Moody got out and hit one of them in the face; then he lost consciousness until he found himself lying on a slab-like table, unable to move. The being above him, 5 ft tall, had an enlarged head, no hair, and round eyes the size of quarters, with small ears, nose, and mouth and very thin lips. His complexion was whitish gray. He wore a skintight white suit covering everything but head and hands. This being, after speaking to him in English, released his paralysis with a metal rod. The witness found himself in a circular room, with luminous walls, and a smell in the air "like burning sugar." He was told that the UFO was an observation craft from a much larger spaceship, and that the Ufonauts will "make themselves known" within 3 years; then, he was returned to his car. At the base of his spine was found a square puncture mark, and a few days later he broke out in little red blotches from his chest to his knees.
