El Cajon, CA reported procedure encounter — August 30, 1981

On August 30, 1981, an engineer at El Cajon, California, reported a car-related encounter that he subsequently described as an abduction. The available account does not give his name or describe the initial object in detail. Some of the experience was explored later under hypnosis. The reported aftermath included marks on his body and damage to a digital watch. Neither the shape of the marks nor a technical account of the watch damage is supplied. The remembered journey and the later recalled material therefore remain distinct. No continuous onboard sequence or description of the occupants is preserved in this version of the account.
