This case being reported by Investigator Beverly Trout. Individual was in UFO adult education class. She was at shopping mall and began to cross a street to go to a party when she saw a silent black oval/egg-shaped object with lights at front and back, and with many lighted windows. Witness thinks 2/10 mile away at stop lights. Object did a right-angle turn and came to within 350 feet away from her. She was so frightened she looked down when it got close, and so did not watch it depart, or disappear. She describes object as less than width of the 4-lane plus turn lane street where she was standing, so possibly it was 40-50 feet in size. Object was low; witness thinks not much above treetop level.
