UFO over Chicago seen by a drunk taxi driver

Summary

In August 1955, a Chicago taxi driver reported seeing three blue cylindrical objects with white exhaust for ten minutes. The observer claimed the objects were in formation and moving over the city. However, the official report concluded the testimony was unreliable, as the driver was intoxicated at the time of the sighting.

The case was recorded as part of Project 10073, an Air Force initiative to investigate UFO reports. Although the report includes details such as time, location, and a visual description, no photos were taken and there was no radar confirmation. The official conclusion was that the report lacked credibility, attributing the sighting to the driver's possible intoxication.
