Utah County UFO Sighting And Dugway Proving Grounds Press Release

The ABC Channel 4 news in Utah is reporting that several witnesses saw three red lights in the sky between 7:15pm and 7:30pm on Wednesday night. The witnesses said the unidentified flying objects hovered in formation for several minutes and seemed to be dropping flares.

One witness who professed that she does not believe in extraterrestrials said that she had to admit the strange nature of these objects that didn’t match any aircraft she knew of. She said there were no blinking lights, no sound and just glowed red the whole time. According to the witness, Lynette Chidester, they began dropping white streams of light, some type of burning objects, however, her husband who once worked for a company that manufactured flares said that they were definitely not flares.

Other witnesses in American Fork and surrounding areas included a member of the Air Force who noticed the objects and began filming them with a cell phone camera. The gentleman in question, Mike Galbraith, said that if they had been military flares, witnesses would have been able to hear them and they would have shot out the sides of planes, but these were objects that flew in formation at an altitude he didn’t believe normal aircrafts would maintain and they definitely did not match any aircraft he was aware of. That was a strong comment coming from someone in the military, especially someone in the Air Force.



Additionally, all airports in the area reported not having any airplanes in the area, let alone anything that would have been flying in formation as the witnesses stated. Law enforcement had nothing to say either.

All the witnesses said the objects or lights, eventually just flew away without incident other than a few shaken nerves, photographs and videos, some of which are included with this article. Some witnesses said it was a single triangle formation UFO and others said it was three separate lights in a triangle formation, but either way, for now it’s just being called ‘the Utah County UFO’.

In an interesting development, that same evening, the Dugway Proving Grounds were under lockdown. No one in or out. At the time they wouldn’t say why, except for a statement that as far as they knew, no one was in any immediate danger. Yesterday, they released the following press release:
DUGWAY PROVING GROUND PRESS RELEASE

January 27, 2011
INVENTORY OF ITEMS AT DUGWAY PROVING
GROUND, MISSING VIAL LOCATED
(1-1-1)
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
U.S. ARMY DUGWAY PROVING GROUND, Utah – The situation at Dugway Proving Ground has concluded. The agent in question has been accounted for, and no-one was ever in any danger.
On January 26, during a routine inventory of sensitive material in the chemical laboratory, Dugway officials discovered a discrepancy
between the records and the agent on-hand. As a precaution, the commander immediately locked down the installation and began efforts
to identify the cause of the discrepancy.
Inventories showed a discrepancy of less than 1 ml (less than onefourth of a teaspoon) of VX “nerve agent”. The 1 ml was located at 3 a.m. (MST) this morning in the laboratory and later confirmed by FBI.All personnel are uninjured and safe. The public is safe as well.
The Army continues to investigate and validate the processes and procedures to ensure proper accountability of these materials. VX is amber colored, odorless, tasteless oily liquid that does not Evaporate easily unless temperatures are high. It evaporates very slowly almost like motor oil. People can be exposed through skin contact (the most toxic way), eye contact or inhalation. It affects the body’s ability to carry messages through the nerves.

Whether or not there is any connection to the two events is not known for certain, however, it truly is suspicious to say the least. Talk about a disinformation campaign. Do you think they would have said that three extraterrestrial craft were taken off the base? Probably not.
