Case description

At about 2:30 a.m. on October 8, 1954, a man in Tehran, Iran, reportedly encountered a hovering saucer-shaped object. A small figure wearing a black suit was said to be visible inside. The account describes the man being pulled upward toward the object, while a crowd gathered nearby. It does not preserve the names or separate statements of those people, or state how far the man rose. No detailed account of a completed boarding, an examination or the man’s return is supplied. The recorded sequence is the hovering object, the figure, the upward pull and the gathering of onlookers.
