UFO seen in St Cloud Minnesota in 1955

Summary

In July 1955, a prisoner in St Cloud, Minnesota, observed a red object the size of a nickel moving slowly westward. The witness saw it for seven to eight minutes, which drew attention due to its straight and steady path. The official conclusion pointed to an aircraft, as it matched the route of a scheduled flight that left Minneapolis 20 minutes before the sighting. Although no photos were taken, the report ruled out a balloon or astronomical phenomenon. The detailed description of the movement and location makes it an interesting case for UFO researchers.
