Case · UFO Afrinews No 22, July 2000

Travis Walton, Arizona 1975 (footnote reference)

1975 ยท Arizona, United States

Outside the region. Hind reprinted this case from elsewhere; it has a file here but no place on the map.

What was reported

Summarising the French COMETA report's discussion of light beams shot down from UAPs, Hind footnotes the Travis Walton case of 5 November 1975 in Arizona as the standard example, referring readers to the 1996 Marlowe edition of Walton's book Fire in the Sky. Nothing of the event itself is narrated; the reference simply anchors the beam-of-light effect that the French authors attribute to particle beams, alongside her citation of Stuart of Mutare for paralysis. It is recorded here because Hind cites it with a place and date as a comparison case.

What Hind made of it

Cited by Hind as the type case for beams of light without further comment.
