Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Festus, MO, USA

Shape: Disk

Witnesses observed and photographed a silver disc-shaped object which maneuvered at high speed after hovering.

Witness and a buddy were taking a walk in the woods near his house. His buddy sighted the silver disc craft first, and using their cell phone zoomed in on the object and started taking 3 pictures. After hovering for about 5 minutes, the craft moved at unbelievable speed, first left, then right, then zoomed up and away as the witness described it “at a speed faster than anything they had ever seen”. Witness seems very credible and stable. This potential sighting of interest was investigated by MUFON and was given the conclusion of "Unknown UAV", closed, and approved. (CMS 113331, Larry Tyree). [Rating increased from 20 to 70 in favor of a close encounter II, photographic evidence of a structured object]
