UFO sighted in Crosby, North Dakota

Summary

A witness in Crosby, North Dakota, reported a bright white object in January 1967. While looking out the kitchen window, they saw an elongated object appear behind a barn. The object traveled southeast for a few seconds, dropping light flashes that vanished. It then ascended and disappeared. Despite investigation, no clear explanation was found. Military officials concluded it was a hot air balloon, but the account suggests something less conventional.

The object's description didn't match known objects, and while a hot air balloon was mentioned as a possibility, the object's behavior and light flashes were atypical. The official report labeled it "unidentified," reflecting the uncertainty of the case. The witness, an experienced pilot, added credibility to their testimony, making the incident particularly intriguing.
