Initial data
A large number of people in this city were awakened by a series of nine blows in three groups of three and into their cars, on the sides or roofs of their houses, or at their doors.
A series of three thuds were reported by many residents who believed they were caused by direct physical contact from outside their homes.
One resident heard knocks and, going down, heard three more knocks. The lower floor of her house was " bathed in a bright orange golden glow."
Another resident was woken up by a very loud knock, went to the door and looked up at the sky.
"I saw stars," she said, " but there was a very bright haze. Then I saw shadows running across the garage."
Her dogs wouldn't chase those shadows. One resident saw a light in the sky described as red-green. the entire city was covered in a thick fog that hung about ten feet off the ground.
within 15 minutes, the glenrock police department received almost fifty calls about robbers and alarms. all over the city, it seemed, on the sides of houses, roofs, gates, etc. There was a mechanical thud, a thud: three sets of three beats.
other residents saw something hovering over a trailer park in the northern part of the city, and photos were rumored to have been taken.
others reported a sound similar to the sound of a large truck shifting gears to a lower gear, combined with the impact of a nut and sledgehammer on the wall of a house.
There were reports of police cars not starting up, and one woman said she thought she saw small children in aluminum suits running around her backyard that night.
Another witness, Mrs. Yeager, the owner of a local beauty salon, was alarmed by the sound of three knocks on her front door. She found her collie dog frozen in front of the front door, making no noise.
