Cash/Landrum Incident
Women Suffer Apparent Radiation Illness after Watching Flame-Spewing UFO, Mystery Helicopters
December 29, 1980: Huffman, TX. About 9:00 P.M.


Francis Ridge:
The incident is described very well by Richard Hall in Vol. II, The UFO Evidence. While driving through the Piney Woods of East Texas, about 40 miles northeast of Houston, Betty Cash and her two passengers noticed a bright light ahead. As they drew within about 130 feet (40 meters), they were confronted by a fiery diamond-shaped object, emitting flames down toward the road. What happened after that is mind-boggling. Please read the reports below.

Richard Hall:.
I definitely consider this to be a real UFO case; the secret military craft hypothesis makes no sense at all if you read John Schuessler's book. Since when do we have atomic-powered military craft flying illegally over populated areas, rather than designated remote and secure test areas, and spewing radiation all over the place? In the famous words of the colonel in M*A*S*H, "horse hockey!"
