SIGHTING: NEW PHILADELPHIA, OHIO (UNITED STATES)

Witness Testimony

"I just had gotten off work in new philadelphia around 5:30pm and was driving home to newcomerstown on interstate 77 south in October of 2012. I was a few miles south of new philadelphia when I noticed a cigar shaped craft flying parallel to the interstate. It was between 30º and 40º of elevation and stayed between my 10 o'clock and 11 o'clock during my entire observation. It was about 2 inches long and about 1/2 inch high from my advantage point. It had no wings that I could see, I rolled down my window to see if I could hear an engine, I couldn't, and there was no jet trail left behind in its flight path so I knew it wasn't an airplane or jet almost immediately. It stayed in roughly the same position from me for the next ten to fifteen miles until the newcomerstown exit. I couldn't tell how high the object was until it flew over some clouds that were either altocumulus or cirrocumulus in rows. It was at that point I knew it had to be very large. I once lost sight of it due to the terrain, but picked it up right where it should have been if it hadn't changed its course. I felt exhilarated the entire time because I seeing something I couldn't explain what it was."
