Lockport, NY UFO sighting report

Lockport, NY

Date of Sighting: 1971

Location of Sighting: 4895 Upper Mountain Road – Lockport, NY

Brief Description: Just ONE sighting I can remember as a kid. We had MANY. Grandmother leaving to go pick up grandfather (he was a over the road trucker so got in in the middle of the night many times). We would leave the house and a bright light would be over us and car would quit. Just die. After the light went by the car would start up again like nothing happened.

Full Description: We had MANY sightings because of our location near the Niagara Falls AFB. Sightings in the 60’s and 70’s were DAILY. But this time was weird. I was in th kitchen with family. It was dusk outside. Grandfather came screaming into to house telling us to get under the kitchen table. As I was being pulled under I remember a deep humming noise and a BRIGHT light shining in the front windows of our house (we were well off the road so it wasnt headlights. I remember TASTING a metallic taste in my mouth. And the hum was deafening. Lasted about 5 mins and the light didnt dissipate — it just shut off with the sound. And we got up off the floor. It was common to see these lights. Aunt lived next door and it was a ways to cross the field (this was country properties) and I can remember always looking up as I ran across the field because we never knew when they would be there!!!

Appearance: In this particular event I didnt  see the object as I was in the house, but the many times I did see the objects they were metal and cigar shaped.
