The craft was seen on Montour Ridge on 8/6/2002 (sic. August 04th, 2002) at 5:30 in the morning by a farmer and also 3 fisherman on the Susquehanna river.

It was at the very top of the mountain on the western end, just hovering above the powerlines. The farmer said it appeared out of nowhere, he could see some sparks flying from the tower and dropping to the ground.

The whole incident lasted about 10 minutes, then it got very bright and took off very low heading west, then it stopped and went straight up, it was gone in seconds.

The horses on the farm were very upset and nervous for about 12 hours.
