1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
25, Debbie Giffey, Psyfor.

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:09,000
Yes, this is Blaine County Sheriff.

3
00:00:09,000 --> 00:00:10,000
Yes.

4
00:00:10,000 --> 00:00:11,000
In Haley, Idaho.

5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:12,000
Yes.

6
00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,000
And we just had a report of a UFO sighting in the Far East in the sky.

7
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:23,000
He said that it was, he'd been watching it for, when he called about 25 minutes.

8
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:28,000
The first call, he said 15, the second call was 25 all together.

9
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:34,000
And he said it was over, he felt probably over carry Idaho, which is about 30 miles away.

10
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:35,000
Okay.

11
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:41,000
And he said that he watched it rise and whatever it was doing, he's been watching with binoculars.

12
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:44,000
And I think he's a very reliable source.

13
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,000
You can call him if you like.

14
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:48,000
Probably still watching it.

15
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:50,000
Okay, we'll get in contact with him.

16
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:51,000
Okay.

17
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:52,000
Thank you very much.

18
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,000
You're welcome.

19
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:54,000
Bye bye.

20
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:55,000
Board reporting center.

21
00:00:55,000 --> 00:00:57,000
I have a collect call for anyone from all steps of charge.

22
00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,000
Yes, ma'am.

23
00:00:58,000 --> 00:00:59,000
Thank you.

24
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:05,000
Sir, I'm sorry to call collect, but I'm at our office and I'm not allowed to make a long distance call.

25
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Where are you at?

26
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,000
Washington.

27
00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,000
You're in Washington State.

28
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:09,000
Right.

29
00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:10,000
Right.

30
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,000
We're in Haley, Idaho.

31
00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:12,000
Uh-huh.

32
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:15,000
And did you have any reports last night?

33
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,000
Uh, yes.

34
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:19,000
I've been over the Sawho Creek Mountain Range.

35
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:21,000
We had one, yes.

36
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:22,000
And what was it at?

37
00:01:22,000 --> 00:01:23,000
What was your report from?

38
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:24,000
Haley.

39
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:25,000
From Haley?

40
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:26,000
The Haley area, yes.

41
00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Okay.

42
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:29,000
Well, I've seen one last night.

43
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:34,000
I know a gentleman, and I found out this evening that a businessman here in Haley also seen one.

44
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:38,000
And they were both on the east horizon, over the mountains.

45
00:01:38,000 --> 00:01:40,000
They were not on the mountains.

46
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:41,000
They were on top.

47
00:01:41,000 --> 00:01:42,000
They were in the air.

48
00:01:42,000 --> 00:01:47,000
The one I've seen was a followed by going into zigzag motion.

49
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:48,000
Uh-huh.

50
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:54,000
And the businessman said his was from bright and bright to bright red, bright green and bright blue,

51
00:01:54,000 --> 00:01:59,000
which sounds like an airplane to me, but he said it was stationary for over an hour.

52
00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:02,000
And then it went out.

53
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,000
It went out of sight.

54
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:05,000
Okay.

55
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:07,000
And was yours moving, did you say?

56
00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Yes.

57
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,000
It was moving from the south to the north.

58
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,000
At times very slow and then very fast.

59
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,000
And one time it looked like it had even stopped going north.

60
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:19,000
It took a straight east direction.

61
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:28,000
It stopped and made a directional move, 45 degree angle or so, back to the west.

62
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,000
And then back to the north again and then zigzag.

63
00:02:32,000 --> 00:02:35,000
Okay, does that have any defined shape?

64
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:36,000
It couldn't see any shape.

65
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:37,000
All I could see was the bright light.

66
00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,000
Bright light.

67
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,000
What color was that?

68
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:40,000
Solid white.

69
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Solid white.

70
00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:42,000
Okay.

71
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:46,000
Was it flying a straight line at all times except when it made its turn?

72
00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,000
Did it deviate from a straight line course?

73
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:51,000
No, it appeared to be going in a northern direction.

74
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:52,000
Right.

75
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,000
No dips or zigzagging or anything?

76
00:02:54,000 --> 00:02:55,000
No, no up and down.

77
00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,000
Okay.

78
00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Zigzag, yeah.

79
00:02:57,000 --> 00:02:58,000
Zigzag.

80
00:02:58,000 --> 00:02:59,000
I had a radio announcement.

81
00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:00,000
Okay.

82
00:03:00,000 --> 00:03:02,000
What time do you spot that?

83
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:07,000
When I see that it's been almost 10, 45, 11 o'clock.

84
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:08,000
Okay.

85
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,000
And the business man said he's seen years around 130.

86
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:14,000
He's been watching for an hour.

87
00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:16,000
It was on the east also.

88
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:17,000
Okay.

89
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,000
Now how long did you watch yours?

90
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,000
It wasn't very long.

91
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:20,000
I'd say it was very long.

92
00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,000
It was three minutes.

93
00:03:21,000 --> 00:03:22,000
Two to three minutes.

94
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:23,000
Two to three minutes.

95
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Okay.

96
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:25,000
It was very, very long.

97
00:03:25,000 --> 00:03:29,000
Now in your opinion, would this be fairly close or quite a ways away?

98
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:34,000
Well, by an airplane, I'd say five miles.

99
00:03:34,000 --> 00:03:35,000
Okay.

100
00:03:35,000 --> 00:03:39,000
Now how could you estimate on the size?

101
00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,000
Was it like a star or bigger?

102
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:43,000
It wasn't the size of a star.

103
00:03:43,000 --> 00:03:45,000
The only thing that caught my eye was that it was moving.

104
00:03:45,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Okay.

105
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000
Did you watch it until it went out of sight?

106
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,000
Yes.

107
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:51,000
All right.

108
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:56,000
You know, most of the times when you're watching aircraft, they seem to be going with the curve

109
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,000
of the earth as they go out of sight.

110
00:03:58,000 --> 00:03:59,000
And this didn't.

111
00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,000
There was a cloud cover north of us and the bay went straight into it.

112
00:04:03,000 --> 00:04:04,000
Okay.

113
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:14,000
Now about a year ago, I had another officer seeing an object, flying object in the east

114
00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:17,000
about 10 miles north of Haley, Idaho.

115
00:04:17,000 --> 00:04:23,000
And we were headed east and this came out to the south and he was also going north.

116
00:04:23,000 --> 00:04:24,000
A very bright light.

117
00:04:24,000 --> 00:04:25,000
A very bright light.

118
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:27,000
This was quite a big one last night.

119
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:29,000
I don't know how to describe it to you.

120
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:34,000
But this one, it had been annoying and there was some clouds covered, but it appeared that

121
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:39,000
it came straight from the south and almost lined up directly with the east toward us,

122
00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:40,000
straight east direction.

123
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:42,000
It didn't slow down to turn.

124
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,000
It just was going north and it was straight east.

125
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:46,000
Okay.

126
00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,000
How about degrees above the horizon?

127
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:53,000
You know, the horizon is hard to judge here because of the mountains.

128
00:04:53,000 --> 00:04:56,000
But I can't get to make out.

129
00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:59,000
Or any estimate of altitude.

130
00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:07,000
These mountains here.

131
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:09,000
I would say around 8,000.

132
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:14,000
And give or take, that's just a real hard to do.

133
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:17,000
That's very difficult to do.

134
00:05:17,000 --> 00:05:19,000
Okay, can we have your name again, sir?

135
00:05:19,000 --> 00:05:20,000
Yes, my name is Gary.

136
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:21,000
That's Haley.

137
00:05:21,000 --> 00:05:22,000
Please.

138
00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:27,000
I should have, well, I was like, said, I've been with an officer last year.

139
00:05:27,000 --> 00:05:31,000
The other last year, that was the one that was spectacular to me to make that sharp turn

140
00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:33,000
really blew my mind.

141
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,000
I've done some flying in there.

142
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:39,000
And you know, mountain home air force, they just aren't too far from me.

143
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:40,000
Right.

144
00:05:40,000 --> 00:05:42,000
So it could be military.

145
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:43,000
Okay.

146
00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,000
But after last night, I thought I would call.

147
00:05:46,000 --> 00:05:47,000
I wish you would appreciate that.

148
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,000
I'd like to keep track of these.

149
00:05:49,000 --> 00:05:51,000
Well, it's of interest to me.

150
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:53,000
What it means to me if it is unidentified.

151
00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:54,000
Right.

152
00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:57,000
And, you know, if any help, well, we want to do it.

153
00:05:57,000 --> 00:05:58,000
Okay, thanks very much.

154
00:05:58,000 --> 00:06:00,000
And if we come up with any answers on this,

155
00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:02,000
why don't we get back to you and let you know?

156
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:03,000
I don't expect any answers.

157
00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:04,000
All right.

158
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:05,000
I don't either.

159
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:07,000
Possibly you may, may put something with it.

160
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:10,000
I think what I'll do from here on out is go ahead and call you folks on.

161
00:06:10,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Those reliable reports back.

162
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:13,000
We'd appreciate that.

163
00:06:13,000 --> 00:06:14,000
Well, you'll get them then.

164
00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:15,000
Thank you again.

165
00:06:15,000 --> 00:06:16,000
You take care now.

166
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:17,000
Right.

167
00:06:17,000 --> 00:06:18,000
Bye-bye.
