Greenwood (UPI): Greenwood patrolman Jeffrey Samples sighted an unidentified flying object at 11:15 p.m. Wednesday while patroling in Greenwood along U.S. 31.

He reported seeing a "bright red light southeast of the highway," and attempted to get a better view with binoculars. Samples, however, said it disappeared before he could use them.

He wrote at the end of his report, "I probably need a day off."
