Police Sergeant Marian Mancu and volunteer police officer Marcel Roussou patrolled the main road passing by the village, in front of the police building. Between the road and the sidewalks are deep ditches with small bridges. Mancu lived in the area and told Rus that he was going to eat something at home. 

The moment the sergeant passed the corner near his house, he heard a whistle from the street and felt a rush of air. He immediately turned back when he saw something on the road that "shone with blue and red lights, making a sound like a wooom-wooom." At first, Mancu thought it was a police car from the area, coming on a routine patrol. 

As he got closer, he realized that the object was hovering half a meter above the paved road, and a small and very strange figure was moving around it. He shouted to Rus, who was now hiding behind a ditch, watching the strange sight. Rusu said that immediately after Mancu left and disappeared behind an apartment building, "there was a flutter from above." 

The brightness of the neon lights on the street changed. The object slowly, silently descended behind him.

 He was startled when he noticed that the object remained suspended above the ground, with three small human beings moving around it. As both witnesses agreed, the object was shaped like a flat hut 5-6 meters across and 2.5 meters high and hovered and balanced at a height of about 1/2 meter from the ground. 

At the edge of it was a solid belt of light, "like a rainbow." The colors, red and blue, changed and flashed. There was a bright white light at the bottom of the object. None of the witnesses saw the doors, portholes, or other details. 

After about two minutes, the UFO rose vertically. At that moment, its lights became much brighter, but the neon street lights went out. The object then rose about 30 meters and then disappeared at high speed to the east. 

Rusu saw the humanoid creatures better, as Manku only noticed one thing and only from behind. Their height was estimated at about 1 meter, maybe less. Rusu said he heard sounds made by the humanoids "like rain in a drainpipe." Both described the creatures as "abortive" or ugly. 

They had large heads, very elongated at the back and covered with bumps, no hair, and large ears. Their faces were white, and they had large eyes. Their bodies were covered with gray metallic shiny scales, resembling the scales of a fish. They also had large, limp, protruding bellies. They had thin, thin hands, no noses or mouths to be seen. 

Witnesses thought the creatures were hovering above the ground and moving "like drunks." About 15% of the leaves of a huge cherry tree nearby were damaged due to the intense heat. 

Other witnesses from nearby villages reported strange lights over the area that night.

Police sergeant Marian Mancu and volunteer police officer Marcel Rusu were patrolling on the main road passing the village in front of the police office. Between the road and the sidewalks, there are deep ditches, with small bridges across them. Mancu lived in the area and told Rusu he was going to eat something at his home. The moment the sergeant passed the corner near his house, he heard a whistling sound from the street and sensed a current of air. He turned immediately back, seeing on the road something, which “splashed blue and red lights, making a sound like voom-voom.” At first Mancu thought it was a police car from the district that had arrived on a routine patrol. Getting closer he realized that the object was hovering half meter above the paved road and a small and very strange figure was moving around it. He yelled for Rusu that was now hiding behind the ditch observing the strange spectacle. Rusu declared that immediately after Mancu had left and disappeared behind the apartment house, “a fluttering from above appeared”. The neon lighting in the street seemed to change in intensity. The object descended slowly, without noise, behind him. He became frightened when he noticed that the object remained suspended above the ground and three small human like creatures were moving around it. As both witnesses agreed, the object had the form of a flat hut, 5-6 meter across and 2 2.5 meters high, and was hovering and balancing at about 1/2 meter from the ground. Around the edge it had a continuous girdle of light “like a rainbow.” The colors, red, and blue changed from each other and flared. At the bottom of the object was a bright white light. None of the witnesses saw doors, portholes or other details. After about two minutes, the UFO rose vertically. At that moment its lights became much brighter, but the neon streetlights went off. The object then rose to about 30 meters and then disappeared towards the east at high speed. Rusu saw the humanoid creatures better as Mancu noticed only one and only from behind. Their height was estimated to have been around 1 meter, maybe less. Rusu said he heard some noises made by the humanoids, “as the rain in the drain pipe.” Both described the creatures as “abortions” or ugly. They had large heads, very elongated behind and covered with bumps, with no hair, and large ears. Their faces were white and they had big eyes. Gray metallic shiny scales, resembling fish scales, covered their bodies. They also had large limp protruding bellies. They had thin spindly arms and no noses or mouths were visible. The witnesses thought that the creatures floated just above the ground and moved around “as if they were drunk.” A huge sweet cherry tree nearby had around 15 % of its leaves affected as by an extreme heat. Other witnesses in nearby villages reported strange lights over the area on the same night.
