What was reported
The three said they stopped their car and felt intense heat from the object, then saw numerous helicopters that they believed were military. They reported symptoms afterward that they attributed to the encounter.
Official and public statements
The witnesses sued the U.S. government. In 1986 a federal judge dismissed the suit after U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force and NASA officials testified that none of their agencies owned or operated a craft matching the description.
