U.S. air defense officials said they had no explanation. "It was a bluish-green light with a large tail," said Ron Talmage, a security officer who was nearing the end of a night shift when he saw the unidentified object. "It had little pieces flaking off of it like it was coming down," he said. "Working nights, I see meteorites, little ones, all the time. This was spectacular and it seemed like it was just a few miles away." The blaze of color, reported by most observers to have occurred just before 5 a.m., was seen over a 40-mile area ranging from Colfax to Penn Valley. -------------------------------------- Report #: 184 From: UFO INFO SERVICE Date Sent: 10-19-1986 Subject: LAKE, MI CASE TYPE: LRS - DD DATE: 13 JULY 1986 TIME: 12:30 HOURS DURATION: 03:SECONDS WITNESSES: THREE SOURCE: NATIONAL UFO REPORTING CENTER -------------------------------------- Three witnesses, a man, wife and child reported observing a flying object.
