Duncan Ivey Sees Strange Blue Light
Duncan Ivey, who lives in the country west of Chapel Hill, saw a strange light in the sky when he was on his way to work at the University Laundry at 6:45 Thursday morning.
“It was as pretty a blue light as I ever saw,” Mr. Ivey said. “It was shaped like a bullet and was moving from north to south on a level course parallel to the earth. After I watched it a few seconds it faded away.”
Mr. Ivey was about three miles from town on Route 54 when he saw the light. When asked if he thought it could have been the flame from a jet plane exhaust, he said he couldn’t see or hear any plane when he saw the light.
