TL;DR

A 1965 sighting in Yonkers, New York, of a beetle-shaped object with 'eye-like' lights was investigated by Wright-Patterson AFB. The case was closed as 'insufficient data' due to the witness's inability to confirm the exact date and duration of the event.

This document consists of a Project 10073 record and a follow-up letter dated March 20, 1966, regarding a UFO sighting in Yonkers, New York. The witness, who was putting out milk bottles at approximately 9 P.M. in late August or early September 1965, observed a beetle-shaped object at a low altitude. The object featured red and white lights that flickered, and two brilliant, amber-centered lights that the witness described as resembling an enormous pair of eyes. The witness noted that the object moved at a speed comparable to a helicopter and made no sound. After hovering between two houses, the object turned and departed in the direction from which it had arrived. The witness also mentioned using binoculars to view the object, noting a rim illuminated by two red lights. The official conclusion of the investigation was that the object was likely an aircraft, but the case was officially categorized as 'insufficient data' because the witness could not provide a precise date or duration for the observation.
