Location: Centerville, Ohio, USA

Those few residents of Centerville, Ohio, who were up and about around 5:30 a.m. on Saturday, March 6, 2004, were going about their normal morning routines, waiting for daylight to break. Activity at police dispatch headquarters, meanwhile, was anything but routine.

Phone lines began to light up with citizen complaints of bizarre ‘flashing in the sky’ and electrical disruptions that seized a large area from Lakeview Drive to Bethel Road, Stone Lake, and Linden. One after another, the calls came in.

Does anyone remember this incident, and if so, what are your thoughts?

I thought it was a substation or something at first, but the last caller gives more details, which kills this theory.
