So you think that sighting UFO's, unidentified flying objects,
|
|
only happens in the movies? Try telling this to the residents of
|
|
Fiffe, Alabama, a northeastern farm town of about 1300. The story
|
|
began about three Friday evenings ago, when Donna Saylor was
|
|
returning home with her sister.
|
|
|
|
Donna Saylor, First Eyewitness, Fiffe, Alabama:
|
|
"It was 7:30 I'd say, and my sister and I were coming home from
|
|
town and we spotted a bright light over in the sky just above the
|
|
treetops. We commented on how... you know... what it was and how
|
|
low it was and stuff and the fact that it wasn't moving. We
|
|
looked right straight at it, and we got to look at it about 5 to
|
|
8 seconds or so and the object just disappeared."
|
|
|
|
Greta McHenry, WBMG Action News, Birmingham, Alabama:
|
|
After Mrs. Saylor's sighting of the UFO, she contacted the Fiffe
|
|
Police Department around 8:40 P.M. Assistant Police Chief Fred
|
|
Words and the Police Chief responded to the call. While
|
|
traveling DeKalb County Road 43, they too noticed a large lighted
|
|
object overhead. They stopped to investigate.
|
|
|
|
Fred Works, Assistant Police Chief, Fiffe, Alabama:
|
|
"I watched it, it just got bigger and bigger and had lights kind
|
|
of down under it shining back on the bottom of it. And we never
|
|
heard a sound from it. It appeared to be no sound whatsoever."
|
|
|
|
Greta McHenry, WBMG Action News, Birmingham, Alabama:
|
|
Since the first reported sighting, other Fiffe residents say
|
|
they have seen a similar object.
|
|
|
|
Rhonda Worley, Eyewitness, Fiffe, Alabama:
|
|
"It's really hard to explain it until you've seen it for
|
|
yourself, but it was, it was something I've never seen before."
|
|
|
|
Greta McHenry, WBMG Action News, Birmingham, Alabama:
|
|
Those who have seen "it" say that they want to see "it" again,
|
|
to perhaps make sense out of something that remains yet
|
|
unexplained.
