00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
Sergeant Newell K. Schneider was out on patrol in the early morning hours of March 17.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:10,000
He was riding with Deputy David Fitzpatrick.

3
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:18,000
They were among the first to observe the phenomena which has been seen in the Ann Arbor area around this county several times.

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:22,000
Sergeant Schneider, can you tell us what you saw and how you happened to see it?

5
00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:28,000
While it was somewhat of an oval shape, looked like a toy top, somewhat upside down.

6
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,000
It was a bluish-yellow or a bluish-green color on top. The bottom was a bright red.

7
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:39,000
As far as glowy or blinking lights, there was no blinking lights on this object at all.

8
00:00:39,000 --> 00:00:44,000
It was one solid light at all times between the two or three different colors.

9
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,000
There was no flashing whatsoever of it.

10
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:55,000
When Deputy Fitzpatrick and Sergeant Schneider saw this phenomenon, they made about four pictures with a mid-ox camera.

11
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:03,000
These two pictures came out. They were enlarged by Detective Harold Curr of the Washington, Occhiavres department.

12
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:13,000
These two pictures are from separate negatives. They both show two light streaks, one here and one here, one here and one here,

13
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:20,000
in the same relative position from which the picture was taken. These were printed from separate negatives.

14
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000
The resolution on this picture is a little bit better.

15
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,000
Is that what you saw, Sergeant?

16
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Yes, it is.

17
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,000
Are you relieved that there's something in the picture?

18
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,000
Certainly, I'm taking a lot of harassment for this.

19
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:38,000
Could you tell us what we see? This dark part down here is Waterfield.

20
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:42,000
Yes, Corningfield right in front of the Pagolka.

21
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:45,000
And then these lights along here?

22
00:01:45,000 --> 00:01:51,000
This was the housing section of Mylon Village. Street lights in the background and red lights.

23
00:01:51,000 --> 00:02:01,000
And then you can vaguely see the outline of the clumps of trees all the way across the picture and a house at the far left side in both pictures.

24
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,000
These pictures were both taken from the same angle.

25
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:05,000
Yes.

26
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:18,000
Detective Curr, the photo expert who made these enlargements from the mid-ox negatives, tells us that these two markings cannot be flaws in the negative.

27
00:02:18,000 --> 00:02:21,000
He says there were no scratches on the emotion side of the film.

28
00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:29,000
In addition to that, these prints were made from separate negatives and they show these light streaks in the same place in each picture.

29
00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:33,000
Sheriff, what do you think about this now that you've seen these pictures?

30
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:41,000
I don't know what to think about it. I was quite skeptical on this until I seen these pictures and there definitely is something there.

31
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,000
Some type of an object.
