# Edgewood Man Says He Shot At and Hit Flying Object 4/28
A rash of unidentified flying object sightings had New Mexico State Police, local law enforcement agencies and military installations in a dither today.
No less than six "authentic" spottings have been reported since Friday when Socorro Policeman L onn i e Zamora sighted an egg-shaped object which roared off the ground, leaving deep impressions and burned patches.
Don Adams of Edgewood told State Police he fired 12.22 calibre pistol shots at an "oblong thing" early today. He told of hitting the UFO six times and hearing the bullets bounce from it.
## Fired 12 Shots
As he paused to reload, the man said, the object moved silently northward. He was unable to determine whether shots 7 to 12 struck the thing. He described it as being a light green color, about 25 or 30 feet long, and silent. He said it hovered about 100 feet directly over his head.
Edgewood is about 30 miles east of Albuquerque.
A few hours earlier, a motorist in the Las Vegas area reported seeing a ball of fire which apparently landed near a radio station. Employes of the station said the man asked that his name be withheld because he was afraid of being laughed at.
Police also received similar reports Sunday from a Santa Fe man. Orlando Gallegos who told of seeing an egg-shaped metal object near La Madera, about 50 miles north of Santa Fe. He told of seeing flames spurt from numerous jets around the bottom of the object as it took off.
State Police Capt. Martin Vigil, who checked out the incident, said "There was definitely something there."
Other reports came from an Albuquerque motorist who saw a "silver looking" object near Truth or Consequences, two men driving in the La Madera area and a Socorro teen-ager.
In both the Socorro and La Madera reports, burned land was found at the sites. Also
discovered were "paw prints, like a mountain lion's," as well as "landing gear marks."
## Photos Mailed
The associate director of Interplanetary Intelligence of Unidentified Flying Objects said from his Oklahoma City office that pictures of an UFO sighted in 1956 by a shipboard radio officer were being mailed to Zamora.
The photos were taken by T. Fogl aboard the USS Ramsey off the California coast. The IIUFO officer, Hayden Hews, said the object was
"almost ientical" in size, coloring, marking, characteristics and landing gears to the thing reported by Zamora.
"Either it was an awful good coincidence or it is the same object," Hews said.
Zamora, when contacted at his home early today, said he had not yet received the photographs.
Meanwhile, military officials at Kirtland and Hollo man Air Force bases and White Sands Missile Range continued efforts to investigate the sightings . . . with no end in sight.
