TL;DR

A newspaper report from April 1970 details a UFO sighting by four witnesses in Campbell River, BC, who observed a stationary, bright object projecting a beam of light for over an hour. The report notes that a subsequent inquiry to Comox Air Base yielded no corroborating observations.

On April 7, 1970, at approximately 2:30 a.m., Ken Herman and Dick Lapine observed an unidentified aerial object while driving home in Campbell River, British Columbia. Upon arriving at the Herman residence at 1421 Perkins, they alerted Mrs. Pat Herman and her 16-year-old son, Larry. The four individuals observed the object for over an hour. Mrs. Herman described the object as being brighter than a star and noted that it projected a beam of light toward the southwest. She further stated that the object remained stationary, which led her to conclude it was not a comet. Mrs. Herman contacted the Comox Air Base to report the sighting, but the personnel on duty reported that they were unable to see anything. This account was published in The Upper Islander on April 15, 1970.

It held steady and didn't move at all, dispelling any thoughts in my mind that it was a comet.
