- A Mt. Healthy resident and his mother
reported two separate sightings of unusual aerial objects on consecutive
nights. In both instances the UFOs released or ejected a single small light
which hovered and then flew away under its own power
-
- On Thursday, Dec. 31, 1998, while walking
her dog in a residential district of Mt. Healthy, Ohio (Hamilton County),
"Mrs. H." (name is withheld for privacy) reported seeing a large
stationary object with "very bright" steady white light in what
she said looked to be a circular pattern. As she watched, a small white
light detached itself and flew away. Weather conditions were partly cloudy.
-
- The next night (Friday, Jan. 1, 1999)
after exiting I-275 onto Hamilton Avenue, Mr. H. and his mother witnessed
another unusual object in the same area near their home. Mr. H. describes
this object as three steady bright white lights in a triangular formation
with another light in the center. It also appeared to be stationary and
about 500' in altitude. "It was larger than a plane," Mr. H.
assured. As they watched, the center light detached itself once more and
flew a short distance before both objects disappeared behind some trees.
A small plane with a blinking red light had also been observed passing
above the objects before they were all lost to view. Mr. H. said that he
had the impression that the main object looked somewhat like a B-1 bomber,
however he was unable to explain the light that he saw "drop off."
The weather conditions at the time of the sighting were cloudy, prior to
a snowstorm.
-
- Both sightings occurred shortly after
sundown; the first (Dec. 31) at around 7:30 P.M. and the second (Jan. 1)
at 5:45 P.M.(sundown was at 5:28 P.M.).
-
- The area decribed is in a landing approach
area to the Northern Kentucky/Greater Cincinnati International Airport.
The witnesses have lived in this area for approximately 5 years and claim
to be familar with the appearance of normal air traffic.
-
- A Hamilton County Sheriff patrol helicopter
is headquarted at a nearby police facility on Hamilton Avenue, but they
inform that they have seen this aircraft come and go many times and insist
that a police helicopter is not what they saw.
-
- According to Mr. H., the UFO also drew
the attention of other motorists. He said that the people in the car ahead
of them were sticking their heads out of their windows to get a better
view.
-
- Additional note: The two witnesess are
mildly interested in ufology and have told of previous sightings, the most
spectacuar being in the mid- 70s near Milford, Ohio.
