Case description

On August 28, 1979, a truck driver north-northwest of Warrenton, Virginia, reported his vehicle malfunctioning near a saucer-shaped object estimated at about thirty metres across. He said the truck was lifted in connection with the craft. The account included the claim that a device was implanted and that he was taken on a journey through space. No location for the alleged device, detailed itinerary or description of the occupants is supplied in the brief published account. The story returned to circulation through APRO and MUFON reporting later that year. Its available sequence is the disabled truck, the reported taking and the witness's later description of an implant and journey; the manner of return remains unspecified.
