Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 26193043 United States 10/24/2012 12:39 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | One of the papers there just released pictures. On Facebook, look up "Monroe County Independent" It's their latestd update. New update: A rural Hecker resident reported to the Monroe County dispatcher that on Oct. 23, just after 7 p.m., that a bright object was viewable hovering just over the horizon to the northeast of Hecker. It was suspicious because the witness stated the object appeared to be lower than the normal viewable stars / planets. Monroe and St. Clair County deputies patrolled the area and set up a viewing area in rural Paderborn along Floraville Road. The object remained stationary and twinkled with red, green, blue and orange light. Witnesses reported the object drifting slightly at about 8 p.m. After 8 p.m., the object appeared to slowly rise and soon after a second strong light was visible closer to the horizon from what appeared to be closer to the Freeburg area. The second object also appeared to emit / twinkle with the red, green, blue and orange light, reports the witnesses. The objects continued to hover and with no present danger, the deputies headed back to their evening patrols, while other folks remained watching using a telescope. Scott Air Force Base was contacted and they reported not having any air craft flying in that part of the area. Meteorologists reported earlier today that there is a meteor shower as well as a solar flare contacting earth today. In addition, the second object was in the vicinity of Jupiter's orbit. There has been no official scientific report given as of yet regarding tonight's siting. Photos are included on this Facebook site - in the Paderborn Siting picture folder. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 17915352 Canada 10/24/2012 01:33 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Anyone have details on this? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 26193043 Was heard on police scanner radio. All kinds of weird stuff being reported. The term "lassoed" was used on the scanner. Can't confirm if roads were blocked while Air Force responded, or if they did respond (though folks are saying so) Incident occurred in the Freeburg area of IL? give us some info about county and some area to sneak on scanner radio feed, radioreference add some link? or anyone record the 911 call about this? |

smarty pants User ID: 6571780 United States 10/24/2012 02:00 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What's your deal? Why would you post this is BS? Did you even take the time to confirm the story? The "Monroe County Independent" is confirming this is a real sighting and is currently still happening and being confirmed/investigated by local authorities. So tired of people on here ruining legitimate threads!!! Great job OP! |
