Military personnel quickly arrived and cordoned off the scene. Residents reported seeing mysterious hieroglyphic-like symbols engraved on the object. A flatbed truck transported the object away that night. The military’s explanation was a “meteor” or “debris from a Soviet satellite,” but residents insisted they had seen a man-made metal object.
