Fireball UFO Sighting in Indiana

Summary

A 1964 report describes a luminous object seen in Elkhart, Indiana, described as a ball of fire. The witness saw it from a car, appearing behind one house, crossing the street, and disappearing behind another. No sound was heard, and the sky was clear with stars. The sighting lasted only a flash. Although a meteor was considered, no other data could be confirmed.

A letter from a local woman also describes a similar experience. She and her family saw a bright streak across the street. They found dry patches of grass in the yard, which raised more questions. Despite detailed descriptions, no authorities were contacted due to lack of physical evidence. The case remains unresolved.
