 Landing At Tucson ,’ After the Lorenzens returned to Tucson from their meeting with the Condon Committee in Boulder they received r message that a landing had taken place near Tucson and contacted their informal. A meeting $’as arranged with the people involved, and they proceeded to the home of a prominent businessman living in thc vicinity 0f Speedway Boulevard and Harrison Road, which is east 0l the city proper. The name of the people involved in this incident will not be given as they have requested anonymity. Their story At 5:40 p.m. on the 9th of October, 14-year-old Richard was coming home. He had ridden his bicycle part way home with a friend and was returning. He had been following the track of a minibike, then decided to ride up a wash. There had been some rain and the floor of the wash was hard packed. Richard was nearly home when he had to ride up the side of wash to avoid a tree which was growing across the wash in his path As he detoured, he spotted an unusual object ahead. At this point he was about 44 feet away from the object. He rode a little further until about 35 feet from it when the object left the ground, ascended straight up with a discernible side-to side motion, and disappeared within 12 seconds. The object was estimated to be about 8 feet tall. 2″ feet wide and shaped like a cylinder. It appeared to be metallic, “Bonding”- supported by two legs which angled out from the bottom, ending in two “feet. in the shape of round “pads.” A curved bar ran between the “legs” just above the “feet”, as of a strengthening member. Richard immediately went to his home and told his mother what he had seen and she came with him to the spot and took several color photos of the impressions left by the object and the general area. One is produced here. Please note what appears to be a twisted character, istic of the prints. The space from edge to edge of the impressions measured about 42 inches and the tracks themselves measured 13 inches across. Richard is a bright young boy and is apparently telling the truth. His parents are to be lauded for immediately photographing the evidence and attempting to preserve it. The terrain clearly showed Richard’s bicycle tracks and his footprints, indicating, as he stated, that after the object left, he approached to within about two feet 01 the place where the object had rested. It would not have been possible for the boy to have made the impressions without aid, and there were no other tracks indicating the presence of others. Richard’s father called Dr. James Mc- Donald of the University of Arizona Department of Atmospheric Physics who recommended that he call in the Air Force. McDonald arrived on the scene almost immediately with a team of college students and took measurements, etc. The Air Force arrived in due time and did likewise. During the following week McDonald called the family and seemed concerned that the incident might get into the newspapers. week after the incident the Air Force called again, and it seems that they were directed to pursue the matter further. However, rain had obliterated the impressions and there was nothing left to investigate. After the Lorenzets had completed their investigation, a local member was told of the incident and he set about checking with contacts at Davis-Monthan AFB concerning the Air Force’ conclusions. He contacted the UFO officer at the Base who said that he had heard nothing of the purported landing. reflecting sunlight, but not reflecting the images of trees, brush, etc.
