The witness and his ex-wife were sleeping in their apartment in the Casagmo apartment complex with a large sliding window ajar. 

The witness was awakened by a loud buzzing sound. He covered his head with a pillow, but soon realized that the buzzing seemed to be coming from inside his head. 

He went to the window and saw what he thought were three employees of the electric company on the far side of the parking lot (about 100 feet (30 m) from the witness). He thought they were electricians, because they had their backs to him and seemed to be wearing shiny hard hats that looked like chrome. All were dressed strangely, it seems, in the dark "suits." Everyone looked like they were wearing mittens, and the witness only saw a "thumb" and something like a glove that looked like a mitt. Each of the people appeared to be no more than 5 feet (1.5 m) tall. 

He quietly pointed out to his wife the strange scene in the parking lot. These three figures were clearly visible because they were illuminated by a light source overhead. One of the people was looking up at the trees, another was looking very intently at the ground, and a third was looking around as if on guard. 

The witness continued to stand at the window behind a very large potted philodendron plant that they kept in the bedroom. 

The three figures suddenly turned as if they had been given a command (right face) and looked straight out the window where the witness was standing. The witness was surprised, as he did not make any noise and did not turn on the light; he immediately felt uncomfortable and sat down behind the plant. 

When people turned to look at him, it turned out that one of them had a reflective stripe running down his pant leg. The helmets were no longer visible from the front (only slightly around the perimeter of the head, somewhat resembling ancient Egyptian headdresses). They had unusually large reflective glasses over their eyes (or unusually large reflective eyes). 

He asked his wife to take a look. She got out of bed and went to the window. Then all three of them turned to the right again (all at the same time). Then they all went as if they were in a flashing light.

 Two went out of sight of the witnesses, and one simply "disappeared" from the open parking lot. The overhead light and the buzzing disappeared the moment the last figure disappeared. 

His wife described the figures as walking in "slow motion" and she was also puzzled by what happened to the third person. 

The next morning, a witness examined the parking lot, but found no footprints or footprints. 

At about the same time, there were numerous reports of UFOs from Danbury.Connecticut - Cato, New York. 

In 1981, a hypnotic regression was performed on the main witness: he remembered being outside his apartment and the humanoids looking at him from a close distance.

Summary: The witness and his now ex-wife were sleeping in their apartment at the Casagmo Apartment complex with the large sliding window partly open. A loud buzzing sound woke the witness. He covered his head with a pillow but soon realized that the buzzing seemed to be coming from inside his head. He went to the window and saw what he thought were 3 electrical company employees at the far side of the parking lot (about 100 feet from the witness). He thought they were electrical linesmen because they had their backs to him and appeared to be wearing very shiny hard hats that looked like chrome. Each was dressed oddly, appearing to be wearing dark “wet suits”. Each looked to have on mittens and the witness only saw a “thumb” and what looked like a mitten like glove. Each of the individuals looked to be 5 ft tall or less. Quietly he pointed out to his wife the strange scene in the parking lot. The three figures were clearly visible because they were illuminated by an overhead light source. One of the individuals was looking up into the tree line, another was looking very intently at the ground and the third was looking around almost as if keeping a watch. The witness continued standing at the window, behind a very large potted philodendron plant that they kept in the bedroom. The three figures suddenly turned as if they were given a command (right face) and faced directly at the window where the witness was standing. The witness was surprised since he had not made any noise and had not turned on any lights; he felt immediately uncomfortable and crouched down behind the plant. As the individuals turned toward him, it appeared that one of them had a reflective stripe running down his pant leg. The helmets were no longer visible from the front (only slightly around the perimeter of their heads, somehow resembling ancient Egyptian headdresses). They had unusually large reflective goggles over their eyes (or unusually large reflective eyes). He asked his wife to take a look; she got out of bed and came to the window. The three individuals then turned to their right again (all at the same moment). They all then walked as if they were in a strobe light. Two went out of the witness field of vision and one simply “disappeared” from the open parking lot. The overhead light and buzzing sound disappeared at the moment the last figure disappeared. His wife described the figures as walking as in “slow motion” and she was also perplexed as to what had occurred to the third individual. The witness checked the parking lot area the next morning but found no marks or traces. Around the same time there had been numerous UFO reports from Danbury Connecticut to Katonah New York. The main witness had a hypnotic regression performed on him in 1981, which he recalled being outside his apartment and the humanoids looking at him from up close.
