Investigation Team: Dave Miller
Date: March 18, 1990
I interviewed the witness on November 9, 1990. On March 18, 1990, at 9:30pm on a Sunday evening, the witness, a 19-year-old college student had just returned home from Michigan. After speaking to her mother at their suburban Oakwood home, the witness and her boyfriend walked outside then decided to take a walk. They walked to the Dayton Country Club Golf Course and stopped to sit and watch the stars. The temperature was 50-55 degrees. After about ten minutes they noticed a cylinder-shaped object in the dark sky. “It was just below cloud level,” stated the female witness. “It was partly cloudy, and I could see it clearly below the clouds. Their were lights on the front and sides, white sparkling lights.” The object was approaching from the south and heading north towards downtown Dayton. “The lights did not blink,” she continued. “I’m familiar with airplane lights and none of the lights blinked.” The object stopped once for about 30 seconds and then accelerated again heading north. The witness estimated the object was about two miles distant and no discernable sound was detected. She indicated it was very quiet on the golf course as no golfers were obviously playing at night and only a private road was nearby. The object was viewed for a total of two to three minutes.
The witness’s boyfriend would not talk about the incident. Researching the Dayton Daily News archives revealed no additional reports of unusual objects sighted on that evening.
