Initial data
The witness, M. N., was driving east on Wellington Street at the southeast end of Lake Superior and arrived in the downtown area (known to residents of the Lake Superior region as Sioux, Canada). He noticed a straight beam of light hovering in the morning sky from the top of the hill on its north side.
His car stopped completely at the intersection, and he looked down to the end of the street (about 7 blocks away), because the street ends at the bottom of the hill and has a metal staircase leading to McDonald Avenue. Even though he was 7 blocks away, his eyes could focus on a small dark figure that was standing very still.
This attracted his curiosity as he slowly moved towards it, and then began to move from side to side with smooth movements, as if he was floating in the air. He moved as if he was confused or scared and didn't know what to do. As he got closer, the figure's appearance seemed to transform into a transparent, shadow-like entity that flew up the stairs very quickly.
To his surprise, the beam of light he had seen in the sky a few minutes ago, a couple of miles away, was now at the top of the hill, just 100 feet away. With his heart pounding, he drove as fast as he could east along the foot of the hill until he reached the nearest hilly street and drove up McDonald Avenue to see what was going on.
In a matter of seconds, traveling from the bottom to the top of the hill, he reached the top of the steps and found three circular burn marks on the sidewalk. After about 10 seconds, he heard a very strange gunshot sound, looked up at the sky, and saw a bright light shooting into the stars.
As he watched this sight, a surreal sense of peace came over him, and he felt as if every hair on his body stood on end.
The sensation lasted only 30 seconds, but when he looked at his watch, a good 40 minutes had passed.

The witness, M N, was driving eastward on Wellington Street on the southeastern end of Lake Superior and as he came to the central part of the city (known to locals of the Lake Superior region as Soo, Canada). He noticed a straight beam of light hovering in the early morning sky, from the top of the hill that was on his northern side. His vehicle came to a complete stop at a cross street and he looked all the way down to the end of the street (about 7 blocks away) because the street ended at the base of the hill and has a metal stairwell leading to McDonald Avenue. Although being 7 blocks away his eyes were able to focus on a little dark figure that was standing very still. This caught his curiosity as he slowly drove towards it, and then started moving from side to side using fluid movements as if it was hovering in mid-air. It moved as if it was confused or afraid and didn’t know what to do. As he got closer, the figure’s appearance seemed to have metamorphosed into a transparent, shadow like entity that very swiftly flew up the stairs. To his astonishment, the beam of light that he had seen in the sky a few minutes before and a couple of miles away was now at the top of the hill, only about 100 ft away. With his heart racing, he drove as fast as he could eastward along the base of the hill until he came to the nearest hilled street and drove up McDonald Avenue to see what was happening. In a matter of seconds, traveling from the bottom to the top of the hill, he arrived at the top of the steps only to find three circle-shaped burn markings on the pavement of the street. Approximately 10 seconds later he heard a very weird kind of gunshot sound, looked up to the sky and saw a bright light shooting up into the stars. As he watched the spectacle a surreal kind of peaceful feeling came upon him and he felt as if every hair on his body was standing on end. The feeling only lasted for what felt like 30 seconds, but when he looked at his watch it was a good 40 minutes later.
