Case description

On January 2, 1996, a motorist north of Swanage in Dorset reported interference during a drive. The car’s radio produced pulses at roughly five per second, and the vehicle itself malfunctioned. A blue glow was visible among nearby trees. The experience was associated with missing time. The digest does not give the length of that interval or describe a remembered entry into an object. It also mentions traces in connection with the event, without specifying their form or the sequence in which they were found. The account’s surviving course runs from the radio and vehicle disturbances to the blue-lit area, an interruption in remembered time and the reported aftermath. No occupant or conversation is included. The precise road location and the manner in which normal travel resumed are not retained in the brief source.
