This document is a Project 10073 record concerning a UFO sighting reported by an 11-year-old male witness in Niles, Ohio. The incident occurred on July 6, 1967, at approximately 04:30Z. The witness described observing a single object that appeared like a bright star, alternating in color between white and red.

The witness noted that the object made no sound and was observed through a window. The sighting was reported to the witness's parents, godfather, and friends shortly after the event. The official conclusion reached by the Air Force was that there was insufficient data for evaluation, primarily because the report was not received until January 1968, making a timely investigation impossible.
