Unspecified over Indian Yake, NY

The report, as filed

I am posting this for my friend who lives just across the way from me. She does not have access to a computer. We are very rural in the mountains, and late last night her and her two neighbors witnessed a large glowing orange ball in the night sky. I myself saw the same thing, except it was at 1 am I saw this. She said her dogs had been acting strange and howling and barking all night which is unusual they are older dogs and rarely bark. She said it flashed in the sky and pulsated she is very shook up by this. I told her I saw the same thing and not to worry. But she said the night prior she heard strange sounds outside her window all night like humming and then clicking. We were hesitant to do this and do not wish to use names. This is a very small town and we don’t want anyone thinking anything poorly of ((name deleted)). You just don’t have things like this happen here.
