Ufos And Missing Time In Wilmer And Edgewater British Columbia
Date: 1973
Time: Close to dusk.
"INVESTIGATOR BRIAN VIKE'S NOTE:" I was told of three sightings that took place around the Wilmer and Edgewater, British Columbia. I know the people who related the stories and believe they are creditable. I have these three reports below.
One afternoon three girls were in a farmers field on their way to the hayshed to enjoy a cigarette, unbeknownst to their parents. After their sojourn to the shed they thought it was time to go home again and walked back down the field where there was a hole in the fence close to Sandy Bend Road.
Before they got to the fence, they heard a sound like a vehicle trying to start, similar to the engine turning over and over. They looked in all directions, but there was nothing to be seen.
The same noise happened again, but they could see no vehicle anywhere. Suddenly they realized that the sound was coming from above their heads. Looking skywards they saw a circular shaped craft with different coloured lights around the circumference, and the object was silver/metallic in the center.
All three girls were stunned, scared and spooked and ran as fast as they could towards their homes. One of them doesn't remember exactly how she got back to her parents, she had no real recollection of the path she took, but when she arrived she told her mother about her experience.
The other two girls were so scared they got the first girls dad to take them home. None of them seemed to realize how long the occurrence was, but realized it was way longer than they planned to be away from home, in fact it had become quite dark.
The whole episode was never talked about again and the mother didn't want to discuss it.
This story was recalled to me by the first girls' sister (and I also took a telephone interview with this witness).
"BRIGHT LIGHT AND MISSING TIME AT "EDGEWATER, BRITISH COLUMBIA"
Date: 1970's
Time: Approx: 11:00 p.m.
Another sighting reported came in from a lady who's husband was on his way to work. It was the graveyard shift and he was driving along the highway to his place of employment, which was some 10 - 15 minutes away from his home.
As he travelled towards his destination, he became aware of a bright light which seemed to be getting larger and larger and following him alongside the highway.
He was curious as to what this was and stopped his vehicle and he watched the object for several minutes. Strangely enough when he finally got to work he discovered that he was over 2 hours late.
Investigators Note: I would have liked to have contacted this fellow, but he has since passed away. I was indeed grateful that his experience had been passed on to me for inclusion in my files.
"THREE EGG SHAPED METALLIC UFOS SPOTTED FROM WITNESSES HOME IN WILMER, BRITISH COLUMBIA"
Date: 1980's
Time: noon
A lady went out onto the balcony of her home looking east towards the Rocky Mountains one nice sunny day. She saw three egg shaped metallic objects in the sky above the mountain line. All were identical in size and shape.
She ran inside to get her mother to have her come look as well, but when her mother saw the objects, she said, "Oh my God" and ran back indoors to get dad. When dad arrived on the scene, all three objects had disappeared.
Thanks again to the witness for her report.
"INVESTIGATOR BRIAN VIKE'S NOTE:" It was noted at the time that many other witnesses in the Wilmer/Windermere area saw similar sightings, but on different days. From what I understand it was quite the talk of the town for some time afterwards and I'd like to perhaps take a trip down that way sometime in the hopes I can dig up some more information about these and other sightings.
