Betty Cash and Vickie Landrum 1980 UFO

December 1980 on a deserted Texas road Betty Cash, Vickie Landrum, and Vickie's 7 year old grandson Colby noticed something strange in the sky. A diamond shaped object with flames shooting from under it. It was gliding towards them. The object slowed hovered over the roadway as if preparing to land. The three stepped out of the car to get a better view. Intense heat pulsed from the object. Eventually the craft began to move up and away. A squadron of helicopters more than twenty appeared and attempted to surround it. The ship became a cigar shaped cylinder of light and vanished. Over the next few hours all three became ill with sunburn like rashes, nausea, and diarrhea. Investigators studied the case for years without coming close to identifying the craft or the helicopters.
