As part of some ongoing research related to a book I am doing related to Kansas, the following emerged. People often researchers clipping they found in their deceased relatives files or something similar. There was no notice of source for this one - just a date Nov. 5, 1960 and the title: "Lighted UFO Parked Near Wichita All Night".
Apparently the object with its three lights was observed about 7:20 p.m. on Thursday and last seen at 4:00 a.m. on Friday. Witnesses included officers from the Sheriff's department and local citizens. All are named. Sheriff Patrol Lt. Hollis Nichols approached the strange lights within a quarter mile about 4:00 a.m. Friday morning. There were three lights that winked at just north of 37th North west of Andover Rd.
Witnesses agreed that the object had made a very fast and direct descent from the northwest to the place where it remained stationary from Thursday night through early Friday morning. Various witnesses reported that the "lights" appeared to be hovering, stationary, about ten feet off the ground in a field at the location.
Edgar Roslaugh, 1519 Lulu Street and Mrs. George Enlala 1733 E. 24th North observed the object about 7:30 Thursday night and thought an airplane was crashing because of the speed and brightness of the object.
Witness Ernest Feeler, 2206 N. MacArthur Rd. said he too thought it was crashing but then observed three lights in a field; 1 blue, one very vivid purple in the middle, and one a bright yellow. The lights were ten feet apart, about ten feet above the ground and not moving.
