Silver balloon with fuzzy purplish glow floated along river and landed. two beings of normal height, dressed in silver suits, emerged. Miner lamps, cattle paralyzed, penned in one. Witnesses fled, tingling
An object was observed. Physiological effects were noted. One silver ball, about 20 feet across, was observed by four male witnesses, typical age 17, on a river for ten minutes. A humming sound was heard. Two humanoids, each wearing a silver coverall, were seen.
Four men were out pouching in a field next to the River Weaver, when they sighted a silvery balloon like object float along the river and land. It emitted a strong purplish glow that made it hard to look at. Two figures of normal height emerged, they wore silvery suits and had lamps on their heads like miners, and these also glowed purple. Cows on a nearby field seemed to become paralyzed and unable to move. Using a metal cage the figures penned in one of the cows and seemed to measure it. The men then became frightened and ran from the area, as they ran they felt a strange tingling sensation around the groin area.
