apr 16, 1966 - 4/16/1966 Patrolman H. Wayne Huston, East Palestine, OH "It was brighter than the sun when it came up.” "Just before 5:30 A.M.—nearly thirty minutes into the chase—in Salem, Ohio, two police officers near the border with Pennsylvania, who had been listening to the chase on the radio, saw the object. They described it as 'a bright ball,' much larger than a jet, of unvarying brightness in the distance. They also saw three jets following it." The chase inspired "Close Encounters of the Third Kind"
