dispatcher talking to officers:
Dupo officer: 6004, this is 3923 on County (radio channel) 2.
Millstadt officer: 6004, go ahead.
Dupo officer: I’m not sure what you’re seeing. It appears to be pretty
high in the area. When I could first see it with binoculars, you could see it
was different colors. Now it appears to be white.
Millstadt officer: Is it very large?
Dupo officer: It’s hard to tell. It’s pretty far off in the distance.
Millstadt officer: This object was above me about 500 feet. And it was
huge.
Dupo officer: This thing appears…. it’s probably 20 or 30,000. It about
where planes usually are. It’s not low at all.
The intriguing case of the Illinois sightings of January 5, 2000, is still
being investigated and discussed. If more information comes to light, I will
include it here in this article. The NISD is still active in this case.
