From the witness's e-mail report:
"On approximately 8-10-1995, myself and the witnesses listed above were observing the view
on what is known as "the beauty spot" in Erwin, TN. This is a mountain lookout area. I
observed a red light moving in a variety of patterns to the north of our location. I called my
friend's attention to it. The instant that I pointed at the light, it came rushing towards the three of us at an incredible speed. I remember my other friend ran away at this point. The one friend and myself stood and looked at the bright red light, now maybe 100 feet away from us where it came to a stop. Then the light disappeared. As I recall, when we drove down the mountain we picked up our other friend about a mile away. It seemed to us as though only seconds had passed since she ran away. She said she had been walking for 5-10 minutes."
