Background
At 10:15 p.m. Ina Salter was driving on Redding Road toward Georgetown when she saw a cigar-shaped object, given as about 10–15 feet, hovering low to the left of the road. It had 3–4 portholes about 18–20 inches in diameter, lit with a yellowish light, and she could see shadows moving inside. The object had a large square opening on its base. As she approached, it suddenly rose straight up, hovered for a second or two at treetop height, then sped away parallel to the ground. Eberhart cites the APRO Bulletin (March 1962).
