This document is a formal report from the Degerfors police district, dated September 3, 1946, concerning a sighting of a light phenomenon. On September 3, 1946, at 21:00, an editor named Ragnar Jansson contacted the police to report that a painter named Gösta Axel Johansson had witnessed a light phenomenon on the evening of September 1, 1946, just north of the Strömtorp railway station in Degerfors.
