Rapport: Iakttagna ljusfenomen (Report: Observed light phenomena) — Säfsnäs Police District, 11 July 1946

This police report from the Säfsnäs District, dated July 11, 1946, documents two separate sightings of unidentified aerial phenomena. The primary report concerns an incident on July 10, 1946, involving Fru Ellen Andersson of Fredriksberg, who observed a silver-shining object with a three-meter-long tail emitting smoke, passing at an altitude of 300 to 400 meters in a northeast-to-southwest direction. Simultaneously, a man named Johan Eriksson from Tyfors reported a similar sighting, describing the object as a silver-shining sphere the size of two fists with a multi-colored tail. Eriksson believed the object landed in a pond in Tyfors; however, subsequent investigations of the pond and the nearby farm of Larsbo proved fruitless, with no physical traces discovered. The document also notes that the author personally observed a similar phenomenon on May 25, 1946, near Skräddartorp, approximately 20 kilometers northeast of Fredriksberg. The author described this object as a 3-4 meter silver-shining comet moving in a northwest-to-southeast direction, an event which was recorded in the author's diary at the time.
