Three local students said they sighted an unidentified flying object Monday night in the south part of Robinson.
Mark Varner and Terry Morrison were visiting at the home of Tamara Brownfield on Fairbanks St. when they first sighted the UFO, which they described as a white ball streaming a while mist and traveling north to south.
This occurred at 8 p.m. and at 4:15 they said they saw the same object traveling east to west.
As Mark went home he said he sighted it again going over the refinery from south to north. He described the object as something smaller than a beach ball.
