Witness Statements Regarding Aerial Object Sighting — Kangos, August 3, 1946

This document contains the recorded testimonies of two road workers, Hjalmar Oskar Katajamaa and Per Johan Sigurd Larsson, regarding an aerial sighting that occurred on August 3, 1946, in Kangos, Sweden. Both witnesses confirmed information previously provided by an individual named Lantto regarding the time and location of the event. Katajamaa reported hearing a buzzing sound, which he likened to a hornet's nest, noting it was quieter than an airplane. He observed a dark, cigar-shaped object, approximately 2 to 3 meters in length, traveling at high speed from the southwest to the northeast at an altitude of about 500 meters. He observed the object make a left turn and descend steeply toward the southeastern end of Puornuvaara mountain. Larsson, who initially alerted the others by shouting that an airplane was approaching, described the object as having wing-like structures in its middle section. He corroborated the altitude, speed, direction, and the object's maneuver to the left before it began its descent. Neither witness reported seeing or hearing the object impact the ground.
