A local schoolboy, Maksim, was returning home along Sadovaya Street. It was slightly raining. As he approached an open space of wasteland he heard a hissing sound, like an electric welding torch. As he approached the field a very bright light blinded him. Out of instinct he protected his eyes with his hands. He was able to notice a huge flat object hovering over the empty field. From the bottom of the object emanated a very bright beam of light. On the right side of the object stood a huge entity about 3 meters in height. A second giant descended to the ground within the beam of light. After that the beam of light dimmed. The aliens clothing was streamlined but consisted of separate "plates", the boy could not see their faces; their heads were hidden under black non-transparent visor helmets. They had very broad bracelets on their wrists that flashed in different colors. The aliens did not stand on the ground; they seemed to hover just above the stony soil. The stunned witness watched as one of the giants stretched his hands ahead and began moving his fingers in the airs at the same time sounds of different tonalities were heard as if the giant was playing invisible chords or strings. (Apparently he had been tuning some kind of translator device). Suddenly in a high-pitched voice he yelled, "Boy, we know your name, come here!" Terrified and dripping in sweat the boy stepped back and told them that he would come later, that his parents were waiting for him. Maksim wanted to run away immediately but his legs would not obey him, it felt as if they were made out of lead. Meanwhile a strange force attracted him towards the giants. Despite that, he struggled and turned back, moving his heavy legs slowly, and hobbling away from the giants. One of the aliens yelled, "Boy, Good bye!" When Maksim made it out of the empty lot he turned around but the giants and the object were already gone. But he saw blinking lights ascending to the sky. He experienced eye irritation for several days after the incident, eye drops did not help. At times he could see objects and people as if they were transparent (!). Around the time of the encounter, residents of Sadovaya Street reported that the lights had dimmed and that phone service was temporarily out.
