Witness Testimony of Nils Bertil Andersson and John Gustaf Adolf Larsson regarding September 14, 1946 Sighting

On September 14, 1946, at approximately 16:30, Nils Bertil Andersson and John Gustaf Adolf Larsson were present at the Kungsör shooting range in Kaares hage, Sweden. While at the 300-meter embankment, they heard a humming sound described as similar to a revving motorcycle engine. Larsson observed a light that initially appeared to be a power line on the ground, which then flared up with gray-black smoke. The light grew to a diameter of approximately one meter and exhibited a color and appearance similar to an electric welding arc. The light moved six to seven meters along the ground in an east or southeast direction toward Rybacken. Although Larsson did not observe a continuous path of light, he attributed this to the surrounding vegetation. The two men then ran 50 meters to the east, where Larsson observed the same intense light at a height equivalent to a telephone pole, approximately 75 meters southwest of Rybacken. The light source extinguished shortly thereafter. Larsson noted that he did not observe any physical object moving through the air during the event.
