Occurred : 5/23/2012 22:15 (Entered as : 05/23/12 22:15) Reported: 5/22/2012 11:55:29 PM 23:55 Posted: 5/29/2012 Location: Watson, LA Shape: Cigar Duration: 30 sec. Characteristics: There were lights on the object
Cigar shaped,simi-transparent object,faint white light on either end,silently moving over Watson,La. I was standing outside my house at about 22:15 casually looking up at the stars when per my peripheral vision a faint object caught my attention. I immediately concentrated my vision on it to see a simi-transparent appearing,cegar shaped object with a faint white, slow pulsing light on each end,traveling slow and low, I would estimate an altitude of about 250 ft.,making not a sound,I mean no engine, no wind disturbance, perfect silence. It was traveling south-southeast,passed behind the north eave of my house,appeared again before going behind a tree on the other side of my house. When I moved to the back of the house for a better vantage point it was so faint it faded out of sight. I went inside and watched the tube till I thought about calling the sheriffs off. to find out if any one else possibly saw the same thing,that was about 24:00 hrs. The officer said no and asked if I wanted to file a report, and inquired if there was any property damage,which I denied and thanked him for his time.I've always wanted to witness a UFO and I think I have but it wasn't any bright, vibrant,darting kind of thing.I never saw anything comparable in my lifetime, it was a personal experiance for me.
