Family and neighborhood kids were outside in front yard in July of 1954. Mother and father sitting on front porch watching us kids playing in the front yard. It was dark but with plenty of light to see one another at close range. Soon a glowing(green)cigar shaped object came into view approximately 2 to 3 feet off of the ground. The object was about 8 inches long and 3 inches wide. The kids started screaming and pointing at the object. I and others were trying to catch it. Every time we tried it would move away. There were no sounds of any kind coming from the glowing object. I asked my parents if they could help us catch it. They were not able to see it. It was at this time I tried to catch it again and gave chase with all of the other kids in pursuit. The object went straight into a neighbors open garage and up to the top of the garage were it went into a crawl space out of site. The owner of the home came out and looked into the attic for the object. He was not able to find it so we left and went back home. It was real the object as all of us kids could see it and were able to chase it. Both of my parents could not acknowledge what we had seen. My friends thoughts of that day were as mine. We saw and chased something that we had never seen before.
