Missouri: UFOs in Jackson make news – August 2012

So far people can’t point to something like a weather balloon or falling star or even a plane to explain it.

Now they wonder could it be related to incredible tales from Cape Girardeau dating back decades.

Some say a bar of red and white lights was hovering recently above homes in Jackson. People tell us they were mesmerized by beams and light shooting from either end.

Chris Clifton and others say the lighted craft showed up for at least five minutes twice over the last week around the Bent Creek area of Jackson.
