Mysterious Lights, Boom Baffle Residents, Authorities Bright Lights, Loud Boom Reported In 2 Indiana Counties
POSTED: 6:33 am EDT April 17, 2008 UPDATED: 12:31 pm EDT April 17, 2008
KOKOMO, Ind. -- Strange sights and sounds filled the nighttime sky in Howard and Tipton counties late Wednesday night, leaving residents and authorities wondering what they had seen and heard.
Reports of lights in the sky, crashes and vibrations on the ground baffled residents, who began calling authorities right after the rumblings at about 10:30 p.m.
Calls flooded dispatch centers and 6News from people concerned that what they had seen and heard might have been a crashing plane, a meteorite or something else.
Many said the light display was followed by an explosion -- a boom that shook their homes. A slight metallic smell was reported in Kokomo shortly after the incident.
Crews scoured a field near U.S. 31 and County Road 300 North in Tipton County, but found nothing, 6News' Derrik Thomas reported.
"I had heard the boom. It kind of woke me up," said veterinarian Dr. Jack Hughes. "It was louder than anything I'd heard before. You would think a sonic boom from a jet, or something like that. This was big."
Hughes' clinic is near the area crews searched for any sign of debris. Indiana State Police and local sheriff's departments dispatched at least 50 emergency responders to the scene.
"We had civilians report things falling from the sky, almost consistent with something like flares or sparks," said ISP Sgt. Jeremy Kelly. "Also, very consistent with a meteor shower. If we had to guess what it was, that's what we would say."
David McDonald said he was startled by what he thought was someone shooting a gun behind his house.
"It was totally eerie. What could make that kind of a noise and justify that kind of a response?" McDonald said.
The Federal Aviation Administration said early Thursday that there were no reports of missing planes. No debris was found.
Residents Not Sure What To Think Of Quake Some Report Strange Animal Behavior Before, During Earthquake

INDIANAPOLIS -- Numerous phone calls and e-mails poured in from startled central Indiana residents after a moderate earthquake shook all of Indiana early Friday morning.
People who commented on TheIndyChannel.com's forum shared similar stories of shock and wonder.
Many weren't immediately sure what had happened and turned on their televisions out of curiosity.
Hundreds of people reported odd pet behavior before and during the temblor. Groggy from sleep, some thought their pets were responsible for the ruckus in their homes.
"I live in Broad Ripple … in an apartment building three stories up and was already awake watching channel 6 news in bed when the bed started to slowly shake," wrote one forum commenter. "I thought it was my cat clawing the bed until I realized that the shaking was getting stronger and that my cat is not that strong."
"We live in Bloomington, and the earthquake woke us up -- even my teenage daughter who is hard to get up. My husband and I both sat up in bed looking all around as our house shook and we could hear what sounded like distant thunder," wrote Stephanie Thompson. "Our very large loving pet boxer, named Oliver, is always at our bedside. He looks like he could take on King Kong at ease, but he quickly ran into his large kennel (in our bedroom) as if he wanted to hide."
It was quickly clear to the 6News staff, who were live on the air for "Good Morning Indiana," that something out of the ordinary had happened.
"We just felt a real good shaking here in the studio," said anchor Dan Spehler right after the earthquake ended.
Some people shared stories of having dealt with earthquakes in California.
"The last time I felt that was … in San Francisco," wrote LeaAnne Nash. "When I felt it this morning in Lebanon, I knew immediately what it was."

15/4
i observed deep amber lights that hovered and finally displaying huge deep amber to orange light masses like they wanted to let me know of their presence. They presented themselves a few minutes before the boom. I ran into the house to see if my boyfriend was ok and I was terrified after what I just observed. My first impression was that something crashed or was shot down because I could hear heavy plane traffic and heavy activity of these amber colored lights. As I was walking back to my back door, i could see off to the west of me in the middle of a field some glowing amber orange lights slowly approaching my position and while i was observing, they put out a beautiful display of sequencing light display and little balls of deep amber projecting off one of them. I was afraid but I captured on camcorde and Mufon was contacted and are analizing my tape at present.The night after I camcorde another similar display and I contacted our local Mufon rep.
Hey remember me, I'm from Marion, Indiana, last night in Kokomo, Indiana something blew up over the city and woke up my buddy and a bunch of other people. Its' all over the news and radio. It happened at 10:00 o'clock pm on April the 16th. But they said it was a dog fight between fighter jets. And I also heard it was a meteor shower. I didn't see it but alot of people did. I heard that the cops went to where they thought it fell. But they found nothing.
http://www.hbccufo.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=4131There were more than 2 witnesses to whatever happened last night. There have been reports of 2 fighter jets and a line of 9 lights that flashed in the air. It has also been said it could have been a meteor. This is what happened as far as I experienced it. At 10:25 pm there was a loud BOOM and my house shook so hard that I thought something had fallen on it. Then everyone gathered outside and started talking about what they had seen in the air. I know personally that I have seen lights in the sky before, flying like no plane could fly. I did not see them last night though. I wish I had. I don't see how it could have been a meteor when the whole county heard and felt the shake and the 2 counties that surround us also seen or felt something. Thanks!
http://www.hbccufo.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=4129My husband and I were just hanging out when we hear a loud boom that shook the entire neighborhood, so we went outside. There all of our neighbors joined us who also felt it. Then I seen a row of almond shaped lights to the north standing on my front porch looking out between the houses in front of mine. The lights seemed to rotate in a circle like the object was spinning and there were about 8 to 10 lights in a row. I yelled for my husband. All the neighbors scrambled to look but it disappeared (my husband says behind a cloud but I didn't see any clouds). Rescue workers went on a search to follow a trail of what looked like embers or smoke in the sky but as of this morning in the Kokomo Tribune turned up nothing.
http://www.hbccufo.org/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=4122 Full Description of event/sighting: I heard the Boom, went outside and heard and saw overhead what looked like flames from the jets 2 engines. Then to the West about 30 Degrees above the horizon I saw two sets of bright Orange shaded flares. The first set of 3 flares lit up one at a time from South to North. A few seconds later the second set of about 6 or 7 flares lit up very close together in a straight line North to South just below and a little north on the first set. The flares lasted for only about 10 to 15 seconds.
Also I noticed 3 blinking lights (like normal plane lights) in the West at about 15 degrees above the horizon. They were in a straight line spaced out about the width of my hand at arms length.
I saw similar flares and heard a jet last Fall in about the same location.
There were lots of reports of this incident. I talk to a person who was driving in the area very close to the objects. He claimed he could see windows on a craft with a lighted interior.
Maybe the jets were chasing something?
Thank you to the witness for their report.
