Summary

Single-page FBI office memorandum dated April 17, 1958 from Special Agent Reynolds at the Detroit field office, carrying record number NW 90288. It reports a telephone account from Beaver, a 23-year-old son of a Detroit policeman with Civil Air Patrol experience, who said he had just seen a circular object with a crystal-type dome reflecting light. The object reportedly passed in a northern direction from the southwest, crossing the city three blocks south of Six Mile at Lamphere Street. Beaver had unsuccessfully tried to reach Selfridge Field to contact the Air Force, and the memo directs that proper Air Force authorities be advised.
