The report, as filed

My girlfriend and I were at the park down the st with our 3 children. I Was looking up at the sky at the chem trail left by a plane when I saw What looked like an air plane with no wings. It was moving at a speed faster Than a normal aircraft. I then realized it was not an aircraft but a UFO. I Had never witnessed a UFO before so I went to photograph the craft and when I looked up it was gone. Vanished into thin air. I am convinced that what I Saw was a UFO. Source of report indicates that the date of the event is approximate. PD

Liberty, KY

Me and my family were observing to see if the deer were able to eat the cover crops at about 1am the ground was frozen hard and school had been canceled for the 3rd week in a row due to snow on this night it was below 0 degrees like many that had passed we were looking at some deer when my mom started screaming and crying that it was the end of the world and began to pray with her doing so I burst into tears and looked toward the sky to witness what she was so upset about when I seen a huge fireball plumiting to earth with a bunch of smaller fireballs behind it my brother which has passed since and my father were speechless we actually thought it was going to crash on our truck so my dad grinds our old 72 Ford 3 speed colum shift in reverse and we move away as it crashed into a field and across a hilltop and was kept quiet by my father because noone believed it at the local store. For years everytime I would pass the field on a school bus I would turn to look there so 33 years later I was telling my daughter this event that took place that night and she ask me if I ever want and looked and I remember that someone had an accident on that farm and Noone was allowed to be on the farm per insurance so when I checked to see who owned it it was my old high school principal and he gave consent to look for anything and I believe that I have located whatever it was burning that fell that night and it will be the size of a school bus or a little bigger.
