Ufo Sightings Mufon Case Closed Missouri Witness Says Cigar Object Seen On May 20
SEPTEMBER 15, 2013 - UNITED STATES - A Missouri witness at Boonville reported two strange encounters with identified objects moving overhead including a cigar-shaped object "as wide as a football field," according to testimony in Case 47625 closed as an Unknown, the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) announced September 12, 2013.

The first witness encounter occurred about 4:35 p.m. on May 20, 2013, when the witness and a son saw an unusual object.

"My son and I spotted a long greenish cloud moving beside the squall line of a spring storm," the witness stated. "I told my son to look at the cloud. It looked to me like a battleship and my son said that it looked like an alien ship to him."

Then on May 22, 2013, at 2:35 a.m. the witness woke and looked out a bedroom window.

"I looked out my bedroom window to see if the jets were flying. Instead of jets, I saw the bottom of a huge space ship almost directly above my father's home, just hovering. I thought, what in the world! It had lots of round portals and around the portals were medium gray, elevated foam pads (it looked like to me). The rest of the bottom was a dark gray color. I could only see the front and middle of it. The back was over the house. It looked to be as wide as a football field - 50 feet or more."

The witness checked on family and then noticed the object was gone.

"I went to check on my son and check the lock on the front door. I then looked out my bedroom window again and it was gone. I think this ship was in the cloud we saw, same size. I was pretty upset after this."

Missouri Field Investigator Charles Frieden investigated the case. Boonville is a city in Cooper County, MO, population 8,319.
