Cherry Creek, New York, USA

Object hovers; leaves odor, purple liquid. Bull tried to escape as football-shaped object hovered

Mrs. William Butcher, son Harold, 17, and children (3 students?), heard radio interference and beeping sound in a barn, went outside to see 50 feet wide saucer like two plates lip-to-lip (elliptical?), 20 feet thick, shiny silver or chrome color with red glowing streamers (reddish vapor underneath?) and leaving a red-yellow trail, which landed nearby then rapidly ascended into the clouds turning the clouds bright green a few seconds later; burned gasoline odor; farm animals reacted and later reduced milk production. Object returned twice at 8:45 and nine p.m. finally disappearing to SSW (or SW?). Radio drowned out by static, a tractor engine stopped. Next day, a purplish liquid, two feet x two feet marks and patches of singed grass were found at the site by USAF Capt. James Dorsey and four technicians from Niagara Falls AFB.


One green-yellow oval object was observed by five witnesses for 20 minutes (William Butcher).
Hynek rating: CE2: Close Encounters of the Second Kind
Vallee rating: CE2: A CE1 that leaves landing traces or injuries to the witness.
