Cleveland, OhioJune 1954

Unidentified

Summary

On June 10, 1954, at about 9:50 p.m. local time in Cleveland, Ohio, a civilian reported one object for one to one and a half minutes. While sitting in his back yard, he saw an object approaching from the northwest. It was glowing red and seemed to pulsate, moving at the speed of a small plane, about 80 to 85 miles per hour. The object had no definite shape and seemed to rotate. It was about at cloud level and disappeared toward the southeast. A neighbor and a secretary who lived nearby also saw the object and described it the same way. The Air Force conclusion was possible aircraft, based on the flight and duration.
