Drudge took it down after a few days, but I had seen the story elsewhere. In the stories I read, the Air Force did not deny that they had been chasing it. I haven't heard a word about it on TV, and I seldom read the newspapers because I get most of my news from the internet. I was surprised there was not more of a cover up on this. However, it looks like they are keeping pretty quite after a few days. I believe it happened this weekend.
According to the witness interviewed, they saw a bluish, cylinder shaped object moving at rapid speed, and the F16's taking off after it. Can you imagine looking up and seeing something like that?! =O
