A Police officer of Toronto, Ontario, of 29 years experience, was assigned traffic enforcement detail in the afternoon, and was using a Laser speed measuring device when he was seated facing north looking at the heavily overcast skies when something caught his eye. He looked directly overhead and saw a large golden orb. It glowed but had no discernible tail. It was within the clouds but the bottom of the orb was slightly lower and visible. The clouds were low and the object appeared to be huge. It moved northbound at a high rate of speed causing a wake in the clouds. In 4 - 6 seconds it was gone.
After several minutes he texted his radio dispatcher by way of the computer and asked if there were any calls for a meteor or lights in the sky. The dispatcher after several minutes confirmed some calls did come in regarding lights in the sky. The officer kept quiet about the sighting at the time and made no official report.

Flying from St. Jovite, Que., to Arnprior, Ont, heading 270, in a single prop, fixed wing, 1974 Cherokee Warrior aircraft, were a medical technologist and the pilot who was also a police officer of about 16 years. The visibility was excellent, and at about 40 miles NE of Ottawa, at 2100hrs, the two looked out their windows to see the wings appeared red. The pilot's watch stopped, the aircraft began to slow down, and the controls ceased to function. The two suddenly felt the aircraft pulled upwards and the pilot looked out his window to see an object he estimated to be close to 300ft in diameter. It appeared to be a red ball of energy close to the right wing. Suddenly it sped away rapidly and as it did it appeared to be white light on the reverse side, with the object having a depth of about 50ft. As the object departed the two felt a falling sensation and the aircraft and its controls returned to normal.
The object disappeared into a large dark grey cloud to the west, only to reappear in the same cloud making rolling movement. The pilot estimated that the aircraft risen upwards about 2000ft during the encounter but then had fallen 1000ft in total. The object eventually disappeared slowly into the sky towards the sunset. The encounter lasted approximately 5-8 minutes.

1978 Nov 26 - Cigar-shaped UFO With Curved Tail Seen By Officer
|

Calrenville, Newfoundland
|
...

Mr.Chester Lethbridge and his wife, reported to the RCMP a strange object in the sky for the second time over the duration of approximately one week over Random Island, Trinity Bay, Newfoundland. RCMP Constable James Blackwood, an officer on location at the time went out to the Lethbridge home to investigate. Upon arriving he also saw this strange unidentifiable object in the sky. Both Mr. Lethbridge and Constable Blackwood describe the same thing: A cigar?shaped object with a curved tail in the sky with blue, red and yellow flashing lights. It ranged from about thirty?five to forty feet in diameter and hovered approximately five hundred feet above sea level with no movement. The object also cast a shadow on the water,so he knew that what he was seeing was not a satellite or distant plant like Venus
This object was also tracked by the Department of National Defense, Gander, NF. After observing the object with the naked eye for a while, Constable Blackwood took out this ball?scope, a device used to amplify light sources in the night, to observe the object. This was definitely not a plane nor like any other aircraft Blackwood had ever seen. After observing the object in the sky for a little while longer, Constable Blackwood decided to turn on the flashing lights on his police car, Mr. Lethbridge, however, did not approve of this and went inside.
Constable Blackwood flicked on the flashing blue and red lights on his car, and within seconds the object in the sky imitated the pattern of flashing lights. Constable Blackwood was speechless, being interested in different types of aircraft as a hobby, Blackwood confidently says that though the craft was about the size of DC9 aircraft, it was definitely not a plane. It did not resemble any type of plane ever built to his knowledge. It had no wings and made no noise. It had a curved tail and a cigar?shaped body and that was all, besides the flashing lights. After a period of about two hours, the object "left the scene like a shooting star, only in the opposite direction."
Shortly after this sighting in Clarenville, Newfoundland, Constable Blackwood, following procedure, made reports and sent them to the National Research Council in Ottawa. The NRC had an upper atmosphere research facility that, at that time, was responsible for UFO reports. An authority with the NRC by the name of A.G. MacNamara responded to these reports by saying that the objects were most likely the planet Jupiter or another planet or star. It must be kept in mind that the object seen by Chester Lethbridge, his wife and Constable Blackwood, did cast a shadow on the water, and planets; stars and satellites do not cast shadows.

1978 Oct 26 - Officer Watches UFO For An Hour

An RCMP officer sat and watched an unidentified flying object for more than an hour earlier this week, another RCMP officer said Friday. The sighting came after an officer answered a call early Thursday. The officer then observed an oval-shaped object hovering at about 1,000 metres for more than an hour above Random Island, east of here, the spokesman said. The name of the officer who saw the object was not released. RCMP say that the officer watched the object through a telescope and provided a detailed description of it.
It had a pyramid-shaped fin on the top of an oval-shaped white body and it flashed red, blue, and white lights for more than an hour before "it went straight up and disappeared."
A report on the incident has been filed with the National Research Council in Ottawa. Meanwhile, a spokesman at the Air Traffic Control centre at the Gander International Airport, said nothing had been logged to indicate that a UFO had been in the area. "All I can tell you is that nothing has been logged," he said. However, if the object had stayed below 3,500 metres and was relatively small, it could have eluded conventional radar devices, he added.

RCMP reports in the Canadian National Archives reveal a mystery began Thursday night with the initial sighting of a light hovering over the lake, reported to be moving up and down as well as from side to side but remaining in the same general area. Gerry Beaucage and Ben Goulet, both of the Garden River Indian Reserve, and Frank Beaucage, 143 Michaud St., Sturgeon Falls, reported the sighting. The object was seen over Lake Nipissing from the Garden River reserve at 8 p.m. Intrigued by the report, provincial police Cons. Roger Patrois and Corp. H. A. Wright later went out to the scene to verify the occurrence.
When they arrived at 11:40 p.m., the object was still there. Using a 50 - mm telescope, the men were able to discover that there were two lights involved and not only one as seen without assistance of the telescope. But they were not able to make out the object to which the lights were attached. The incident was reported to Canadian Forces Base North Bay for verification. It finally disappeared at 12:55 a.m. Friday.
The base later reported that the source of the light was believed to be a cottage located on Sandy Island. Police do not feel that the explanation is satisfactory, however, as from observing the lights, they feel the source would have been too high in the sky to have been a cottage.
Sunday, police again sighted a light hovering over the lake, this time from a point eight miles east of Sturgeon Falls, with the light seen in the southeast. Cons. J. J. Culkeen made the initial sighting. He observed the light, which seemed to be at a greater altitude than that seen Thursday for a period of about 15 minutes and called the North Bay provincial police detachment.
Cons. Len Decaire drove down to the scene and also observed the object. Intermittent observation was maintained until the object disappeared at about 4:30 a.m., an hour after it was first noticed in the sky. Police again notified CFB North Bay, but have not yet received any possible explanation of the mysterious light.

A blazing, white Unidentified Flying Object roaring like a jet aircraft, has been reported hovering near a farmhouse near Priddis, 10 miles west of Calgary, an RCMP officer says. The officer of the RCMP Turner Valley detachment, said he went to the scene, Saturday, and saw three mysterious objects flit about above the Rocky Mountains.
The officer said in a statement, this week, that "the object is described as being 60 feet in diameter and 25 feet high, giving off a very white light as it hovered about 100 feet from the ground." Constable Dave Grundy said the UFO was first reported at 2:30 a.m., Oct. 13, by a woman living on a farm near Priddis. The woman did not want her name released.
"It was oblong with a crown and windows on the crown giving off a clear light. It was close enough, they (the woman and her children) could compare it in size to their house. Inside was a white, white light. It sounded like a jet engine without the whine. After about two minutes, it took off to the north, then west, very fast, they said."
The constable said that by the time he arrived, the object had flown off to the west, watched by the woman and her children through a telescope. Looking through the telescope, the officer said he saw "three objects jumping around all over the place, in the west, above the Rockies." "They appeared to be diamond-shaped," the constable said. "That was quite an experience...I saw what I saw."

2:00 AM. The wife of the house couldn't sleep, and was sitting up in the darkness of the house smoking a cigarette. She was startled by a white object which seemed to be standing just outside her kitchen window. When she went over to inspect, she saw a "4-foot tall thing". This was not a UFO, but appeared to be a creature of some kind. This thing had a large round head with very large, too large, eyes in it. These "eyes" seemed to glow with phosphorescence. Around this "head", or was it a helmet?, there was a halo of soft "flames". "Shoulders" angled directly down at a 45 degree slope. No more of "it", whatever it was, could be recalled. The farm lady was not at all afraid of this entity, and said, rather, that she thought it "beautiful" and was attracted by it. She said, perhaps more ominously, that she could not move away from the window. She thought the sighting lasted only about 15 seconds, and then she suddenly snapped to, and realized that something odd was happening. She roused her husband, who dressed and went outside. There was no trace of the "thing" except perhaps one fact: their dog was found "scared to death" and lying low on the ground. It would not follow the farmer as he inspected the grounds.
That same evening, local police and a Catholic priest both reported UFO sightings around a nearby quarry. Once again many other cases were reported in the Quebec region. The entity in this case is unique. It is most like the famous 1952 Braxton County [Flatwoods] WV "Monster", which was one of the first entity encounters ever reported in the U.S. Sources:

At just before 8 pm on a clear November evening a citizen telephoned the local RCMP detachment to report that he had seen, what he believed to be, a large 150 foot (45 meters) red and orange, fast moving UFO. Two RCMP constables were dispatched and arrived in the area where the citizen reported that the sighting took place. At first they saw nothing but decided to drive around some of the grid roads to have a look. After driving a short while, they noticed, what one officer called "an odd set of lights" west of their location so they drove in that direction.
After driving away (and we gather from the reports that they did not have the light in view all time), they crested a hill and before them, no more than a mile (1.4 km) away was a very bright light. As they drove toward the light with the headlights on their police cruiser on, the object (UFO) disappeared. Turning off the their car's headlights, the UFO then re-appeared again. The object first appeared to be on or very near the ground and the two constables watched as the object changed color from orange to red then fading and becoming bright once more. The officers estimated the size of the object to be about 150 feet in diameter (45 meters).
After a short period of time the UFO appeared to gain altitude to about 100 feet (30 metres) and started to move toward the two startled police officers. As the UFO got closer, the officers were able to make out what one described as a "mushroom shaped object" and the other explained as an "upside-down saucer". Both agreed that the UFO was quite large and had red and orange lights completely encasing it. At no time did they hear any noise coming from the object. Now another RCMP officer arrived with 15 civilian E.M.O. members on snowmobiles. The snowmobiles were able to move across the farmer's fields directly toward the UFO but each time they would get close, the object would quickly move away. A number of individuals, including at least one of the RCMP officers had a look at the UFO through a rifle scope. Their comment in the report of one officer was that through the rifle scope... "It appeared to have portholes!"

Two police constables and several other persons reported sighting an unidentified flying object near here early Saturday. "It was just like a large star ... no body, no form, just a light about 1,500 feet in the sky," said Constable Jack McKay of the Pembroke OPP detachment.
The object was described as a "cylindrical-shaped brilliant light in the sky over Petawawa," a town 10 miles north of Pembroke. Constable McKay, his patrol partner Constable Grant Chaplin, and several others, including three military policemen at the nearby Canadian forces base, reported seeing the phenomenon at about 5 a.m. Saturday. The Canadian forces radar station at North Bay reported Sunday it is checking the incident.

Cons. D. G. White of the Noelville detachment received what he thought at first was just a crank call while at home eating dinner last night. Two Mason township residents, Mr. and Mrs. Lionel Chartrand, had apparently been watching an unidentified object in the sky for about 20 minutes before they worked up the nerve to call police, and White decided that if there was something there it might be worth seeing. When the Chartrands first noticed it, it was high in the air, and they noticed its reflection in the snow. He could not determine whether it had passed over the house or whether it was dropping behind the horizon or hovering behind the trees.
"It was just unusual, that's all I can say. I can't tell you what it was." He said that by the time he arrived at the scene, just south of Noelville on Highway 69, the object appeared to be hovering over trees a mile south of the Chartrand home. According to White, the Chartrands had first seen the object when an orange glow from it reflected off the snow in their fields. It appeared to be half-way between the house and the trees when they first saw it, he reported. "It was a little larger than a star, and you could tell that it wasn't by the color. It was first orange, then turned a silver grey, and then back to orange. It was disappearing over the horizon or behind the trees when I last saw it. It was there for about three minutes."
He said that with the naked eye, it was impossible to tell the shape of the object. White observed it through binoculars and said that it was roughly bell-shaped. "It was not moving fast, like a plane or a shooting star," White said. He said he could not tell how far away the object was, or how large it was. He said there was no noise from it, and that it appeared to be moving in a southwesterly direction. White said he called the Canadian Forces Base at Falconbridge.

At 4:00am EDT, a man drove down a side road to investigate a green light he saw in a field. His headlights illuminated a large, metallic-appearing disc on or near the ground. It was shaped like an inverted bowl and had three legs. The witness saw three beings about 3-4 feet tall and wearing helmets (humanoids). They appeared to be gathering specimens. When the beings noticed the witness, they "flew" (floated) into the object and it took off silently at high speed. Burn marks and impressions (physical traces) were found at the site. Reportedly, the police at nearby Perth had a similar sighting.

1967 Mar 1 - Police Sight UFOs

It isn't often that sightings of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) are confirmed by police officials. But Tuesday night, most of the reports were made by police in Southwestern Michigan.
Ottawa County Sheriff Bernard Grysen and five of his deputies were among more than one dozen persons reporting reddish-orange objects in the dark, but clear sky over Ottawa County along the shores of Lake Michigan. Grysen described a reddish-orange object that hovered low over Lake Michigan a short distance from his cottage. He said it moved quickly from side to side before disappearing.
Police officials in three counties bordering Ottawa County, Allegan, Muskegon and Kent, said they had received no UFO sighting reports. One deputy in Muskegon County said he had watched an "exceptionally bright star" for several minutes but added there was movement and no color.
Ottawa Deputy Dave Heerspink reported sighting the object, or objects, at three different times at three different spots in the county Tuesday night. "It looked like a cluster of lights with the centre intensely bright and the outer edges reddish in color," Heerspink said. "It seemed to be kind of oval shaped, more or less."
Heerspink said he was listening on his two-way radio when the first report came in from other deputies. Then he also spotted the object. The deputy said he came in to the station to pick up a pair of binoculars after making his first sighting and then spotted a second one with the binoculars. Heerspink said he saw a plane go by and the object he was looking at "was definitely not a plane."

A provincial police constable patrolling Highway 11 at Ramore, 25 miles north of here, said he saw an elliptical object Friday night, flying at 1,000 feet and emitting an intense white light.
Constable Florian Grabowski said it was moving slowly northward over the railroad tracks. "Suddenly, as I was stopping the car to get out and see if I could hear any sound, it disintegrated in a shower of light particles which fell over the tracks."
At about the same time, blue rain fell in Kirkland Lake. William Martin said he noticed large blue drops on his window during a heavy rain. In 15 minutes, they faded gradually and finally became clear, he said.
