On Saturday, May 16, 1998, at approximately 23:50, Mr. R.S., Mr. M.G. and his wife (both school teachers) were sitting on a swing in the backyard when they saw three lights moving from the east. 

The formation was triangular in shape, one fire was slightly displaced relative to the others. When they entered the atmosphere, they were the color of copper. One displaced object accelerated and joined the others, as all three were moving very fast. Then they turned sharply south and turned left. There was no sound, no flashing lights. There are only three "disks"... they glow like stars. 

RS called NORAD in the North Bay and reported his discovery. Apparently, someone accepted the charges there, and the call went through. The first person who called was the one who said:

"It could be meteorites." 

RS replied:

"Since when do meteorites come from the east and turn sharply to the south?" 

The call was then relayed to a woman who said the call was being recorded. The witness said he didn't care. After he told her what he had seen, she replied that she did not know what he had seen. But RS says he knows that these objects were not from Earth, and certainly were not meteorites. He agreed to be recorded on audiotape and said his friend would probably do the same.

On Saturday, September 12, I called Mr. M.G., and he told me that on the night after this observation (May 17) he noticed objects again. But this time they came from the south and moved north, covering the distance in about 4 seconds.

Original news

Date: Friday, September 11, 1998.
Location: Hanmer, Ontario.

On Saturday, May 16, 1998, at approximately 11:50 p.m., Mr. RS, Mr. MG and his wife (both school teachers) were sitting on the swings on the back patio when they saw three lights moving in from the east. The formation was triangular in shape, with one light slightly offset from the others. As they came into the atmosphere, they looked to be the colour of copper. The one offset object sped up and joined the others, as all three moved in really fast. Then, they veered to the south in a very sharp turn and left. There was no sound, no blinking lights; just three 'disks'... lights like stars. RS called collect to NORAD in North Bay, and reported his sighting. Apparently, someone there accepted the charges and the call went through. The first one to take the call was a man who said: 'It might be meteorites'. RS replied by saying: 'Since when do meteorites come in from the east and turn sharply to the south?' The call was then passed on to a woman who said that the call was being recorded. The witness said that he didn't care. After he told her what he saw, she answered that she didn't know what he saw. But RS says he knows that these objects weren't from earth, and certainly weren't meteorites. He has agreed to be recorded on audio tape, and said that his friend will probably do the same.

On Saturday, September 12, I called Mr. MG and he related to me that the night following this sighting (May 17), he sighted the objects again. But this time, they came in from the south and traveled north, covering the distance in about 4 seconds.
