Levelland UFO case, 1957

 (NOT ACTUAL PHOTO FROM THIS CASE)

A case in which no less that 15 people described seeing an egg shaped object either flying or landing. They also claim that when the "egg shaped craft" came close, there car engines would some how switch off and then restart once the craft left.
Levelland Police got so many calls that night that they sent out Sheriff Weir Clem to investigate and even he saw what he described as " a brilliant red object moving across the sky".

 (BALL LIGHTNING)

Now, as with all UFO sightings, there is a reasonable explanation for what these 15 or more people saw that night, "ball lightning" or "St. Elmo's fire". Even though some witnesses claim that they saw the object land, or already landed, on the road, one even claimed that it shot off and an amazing speed, experts say that it was just a weather phenomenon.
