Lincoln abduction report — 1950

A retrospective childhood account from Lincoln, Nebraska, places an unusual encounter at night sometime in 1950. The witness remembered being outside with other people when an object with moving lights appeared and landed nearby. The source gives no month, day, street, or securely established witness identity. He described being unable to move while three small figures emerged and appeared to work on the object. His later account continued inside, where the other people seemed motionless. A woman reportedly spoke with him and explained her appearance as an attempt to avoid frightening him. A further remembered sequence concerned an examination by reptile-like figures. The bibliography points to UFO Newsclipping Service issue 258. The supplied summary does not explain when the memories were first recorded or which details arose through later questioning. The illustration concentrates on the outdoor phase. The claim that other people were frozen records the witness's impression rather than evidence that time stopped.
