10:40 p.m. A male witness called the UFO hotline at the UFO Filter
Center at Mt. Vernon, Indiana, and reported that a blue and green
object with a humming noise was observed for about 10 minutes,
about 5 miles NE of Mt. Vernon at the tiny rural community of
Bufkin. The object was maneuvering, back and forth, first from
west to east, then north to south, while moving up and down. It
was last seen to the south at the Meade Johnson Plant just east of
at Mt. Vernon near hwy 62. The report was one of many coming in to
the Center during the wave of 1973. Call was recorded. The
encounter range was determined by the humming noise reported.

were on a pursuit of a drunken-driver who had gone into a ditch.
While they were waiting for a wrecker they observed an OBOL
(Orange Ball of Light) which reacted to light. Flashlight seemed
to cause the object to get brighter and closer. After about 1-1/2
minutes of observing the object the squad car spotlight was put on

Vernon Milling Co. and reported a wedge-shaped object. While at
work he observed it south above Fuhrer Ford for about 15-20

car I happened to look back. I stood on top and watched the object
until it disappeared. Best I can describe (it, is) at about six
city blocks away...60-100 feet in the air.... I could hear no
sound.....Seemed like it disappeared as if you would shut off a TV
set. It was light orange and slowly faded out," (UFOFC, Ridge
