An Ohio witness at Lima reported watching and photographing a “twisting” cylinder-shaped object that appeared to move toward the ground level at 8:09 p.m. on April 10, 2023, according to testimony from the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC).
The witness was driving westbound on State Road approaching the intersection of Route 65 and Ottawa Road. The object was observed out the front windshield towards the passenger side (northwest) over Route 30.
“Mid-flight, it was twisting as the photo was taken,” the reporting witness stated. “It made a gradual turn and began to slow as it got closer to the ground.”
The report included three images, filed on April 11, 2023, and released for public viewing on May 19, 2023. Witness quotes were edited for clarity. Please report UFO activity to NUFORC or to the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON).
