Occurred : 4/24/2011 17:30 (Entered as : 04/24/2011 17:30) Reported: 4/24/2011 4:25:13 PM 16:25 Posted: 5/2/2011 Location: Vinita Park, MO Shape: Circle Duration: 30 mins
we saw a black disk shape object in the sky circle in shape hovering over some kids on the basketball court moving around. When one of the park rangers saw it for a while, she got out of her van and started towards the court at which time the object started moving away slowly. The other park ranger came out of a building and saw it and a kid came over who saw it. The object was round with a ring around it like the planet saturn connected to the round object with some sort of bars holding it together. We also heard a roaring noise at the time it slowly moved away and then it disappeared in the clouds. ((NUFORC Note: We spoke via telephone with both witnesses, and they sounded to us to be both serious-minded, and credible. Both witnesses occupy positions of responsibility. PD))
