NUFORC Note:

We first posted this report on February 4, 2013, indicating that "Hood River" was in Massachusetts. A visitor to our website caught the error, and apprised us of it, for which we are grateful.

We have corrected the error, and we still do not know whether the report was submitted by a serious-minded witness, or whether it was a hoax. PD))
