droppedImage_2

Synopsis: On 14 Oct 08, at approximately 2230 hours, two witnesses were standing outside of their hotel and saw a large triangular UFO with three white lights on all three sides and a pulsing red light in the middle of the craft. The UFO flew East to West until it was completely out of sight. Several weeks later, according to three other witnesses, two unidentified Men in Black visited the same hotel looking for the two witnesses who saw the UFO. Although the two witnesses were not at the hotel at the time, the Men in Black harassed the hotel staff for approximately 30 minutes. The MIB then left the hotel and never returned.

Evidence Submitted: Surveillance footage of the Men in Black

Initial Action: This UFO case was opened as a CE1, a Close Encounter of a UFO within 500 feet.

Investigation and Findings: The investigators interviewed all of the witness multiple times and where judged to be reliable and there was no evidence at the time to suggest the contrary.   Moreover, there were numerous UFO reports regarding this type of UFO sighting along the US and Canadian border, specifically during much of 2008 in the Niagara Falls area.  Many of these UFO reports were of a black triangle craft with three bright lights on its edges and a pulsing red light in the middle. Since there have been collaborative sightings and reports of the same UFO, the investigators concluded the witnesses did see an actual unknown aerial object.  However, there was no physical proof, beyond a reasonable doubt, to suggest the black triangle was of extraterrestrial origin. Furthermore, regarding the Men in Black account, the investigators conducted multiple telephonic interviews with the witnesses working at the hotel who personally spoke with the Men in Black.  The first-hand account testimony of these witnesses collaborates the Men in Black story related by the primary witness of this investigation. However, there was no proof to conclude whether or not the Men in Black were associated with the UFO report or for that matter if the event was hoaxed.

Synopsis: On 09 Sept 2011, at approximately 1900hrs, a couple traveling on Route 32 from Washington, DC to Baltimore, MD saw “a strange craft” they could not explain. Initially, the couple believed the craft was an array of balloons tied together on a flat platform. According to the couple, the craft’s appearance initially reminded them of “large Mickey Mouse ears”. As the couple got closer to the craft, however, they could clearly see it was not a balloon because the craft was floating level and not bobbing or wobbling. In an effort to avoid a traffic accident, the couple decided to exit Route 32 via the 14a ramp. Once off the ramp, they stopped their car on the Little Patuxent Parkway and monitored the craft as it floated across the highway about 100 feet above them. The craft continued to travel west for five minutes until it was too far away for the couple to continue monitoring it. The couple provided the following description of the craft: The craft was moving very slowly and silent; was flat on the bottom; had a bunch of square protrusions based on the platform; the protrusions were arranged in a manner that made it impossible to tell if they were all one or many separate ones; the protrusions appeared as if they were an array of black geometric blocks stacked on top of each other; the craft was about 4 feet high and 4 feet across; had a 4ft pipe antennae pointed downward; and had a purposeful flight characteristic, as if it were a probe traveling along.
