Several unidentified flying objects were reported by Michigan
residents early today and policemen said they observed two of
them.
State Police trooper at Sandusky, in Sanilac County, said he
watched "a brilliant ball of light" in the pre-dawn sky
today for more than an hour.
The Trooper, Alex Fisher, described the object as having a green
finger of light pointing towards its top and a red shaft toward
the bottom. It hovered "at airplane altitude", he said,
and gradually disappeared over Lake Huron to the east.

The unidentified flying object was first reported by Midland
County Deputies Mark Bush and Robert Stillwagon west of Midland
at 8:55pm Wednesday (March 29, 1967). They said it was 75 to 100
feet long, shaped like the letter "V" with a bright
white light at its nose and reddish-amber lights along its sides. They said it was 800 feet above M-20 and was soaring noiselessly
at 35-40 mph.
A radio dispatcher at the county's sheriff office relayed their
report to the tower at Tri City Airport (Freeland, MI). The tower
confirmed that they were observing four lights in the sky but
could not explain them.
Selfridge AFB said today that its radar showed nothing unusual in
the area at that time.
A private pilot, who refused to be unidentified, also called the
tower with a similar sighting.
Arthur Williamson and his wife, who live in rural Midland County,
told police they also saw a UFO at 9:08 p.m., sliding
west-southwest at about 40 mph. They gave the same description as
did the two deputies, except that it was silver and had four
lights on each side, in addition to the nose light.
Midland City Police said they checked with the Air Force to
determine if a high-level refueling operation took place, but
received a negative reply.
