NUFORC UFO Sighting 20475
Occurred: 2001-11-15 17:58 Local
Reported: 2001-11-18 20:28 Pacific
Duration: 10 mins
No of observers: 1

Location: Ringold, OH, USA

Shape: Formation


A formation of amber-colored lights sighted multiple times along St. Rt. 188 near Ringold, Ohio

On the evening of the 15th of November, while on my way to Circleville, Ohio, I glanced out of my drvier's side window and saw a formation of three, amber colored lights, strung out in a row in the sky, though they only lasted a few seconds, before they blinked out one after another. This was at the intersection of State Route 188 and State Route 674, going up a hill towards the small berg of Ringold. Puzzled by what the objects were, I continued driving down Rt. 188 for about four or five minutes before the objects reappeared in the middle of a cirrus cloud. This time, the objects were in the formation of a triangle, except that there was a fourth light off to the right side. Again, they only lasted for a few seconds in the sky before they dissappeared, only to return, in the same formation, minus the extra light to one side about two minutes later. This was the last time I saw them, though I continued to keep an eye towards the sky for a few minutes until I reached the city limits of Circleville. I reported the event to the local MUFON of Ohio affiliated that night (the monthly meeting of the group had been my intented destination for the evening)

NUFORC UFO Sighting 52404
Occurred: 1955-07-15 22:00 Local
Reported: 2006-09-08 20:05 Pacific
Duration: 2 min. max
No of observers: 1

Location: Ringold, LA, USA

Shape: Light


As a young boy at church summer camp my friend and I were sitting on the steps of the main dining hall talking.

I looked up in the sky and saw three small lights, only slightly larger than stars moving across the sky at a speed not much faster than a plane would move one behind the other fairly close together.

First we thought they must be planes but thought they were moving a little to fast. While watching them they stopped. This really got our attention and while watching them sit there they suddenly took off as if shot from a gun and in a flash was gone. I know this is a boring story as there was no large craft to take us on board or anything like that but I guess that's why I'm reporting after 50 years. I saw what I saw and it was not any kind of plane. I'm reporting because I belive there are thousands of people like me who have seen similar incidents and never told or had the opportunity to tell their story, but now we have the internet and I hope you will get the word out asking people to report even the simple sightings like mine. I saw a similar thing again about 12 years later and I'll report on it using another form. My son has also seen interesting lights but never told anyone but ma and perhaps his brother.




NUFORC Note:

Date of incident may be approximate, although the witness does not indicate that fact. PD
