Summary
Three FBI 302 interview reports from PURSUE Release 1 documenting separate eyewitness accounts of the September 2023 southeastern U.S. UAP sighting at a U.S. test site. FBI 302 forms are the standard firsthand interview documentation used by the FBI. Each serial covers a distinct witness: Serial 003 describes a "metallic bronze" object, Serial 004 describes a "metallic/gray" object, and Serial 005 describes a "bright light over the horizon." The interviews were conducted with U.S. citizens whose identities, the test site location, and related military facility details have been redacted. These three serials are companion documents to the FBI composite sketch (FBI September 2023 Sighting - Composite Sketch) released as part of the same PURSUE batch.
Significance
The September 2023 southeastern U.S. UAP sighting is one of the most formally documented recent domestic UAP encounters in the public record. The combination of a FBI Lab composite sketch and three separate 302 witness interviews — all released together through PURSUE — represents a complete FBI investigative package, including corroborating accounts from multiple witnesses at the same site.
