Description (In Witness's Own Words): At first, object was similar to a jiffy pop pan half-popped, with no handle. There were white lights in the \"pan\". The rounded top looked like a framework covered with a gauzy, shimmery material. The object did not move for about one minute. It hung over the trees. Then the white lights blinked, the object tipped onto its side (looking like a frisbee on edge) and then zipped away.

Investigator's Notes:  The witness is describing a classic flying saucer sighting.  The object looks like a pan when viewed in one position and then a frisbee type shape in another position.  The fact that the object tipped on its side and zipped away is a common maneuver see in saucer sightings.  The witness has not responded to my requests for more information.  Sometimes this is indicative of a hoax.  Given the current scenario this case cannot be further investigated.  I am more inclined to classify it as a hoax.
