Two unidentified anomalous phenomena were observed in southern Idaho during the week of October 24 through 28, 2026. Both incidents were submitted to the National UFO Reporting Center, an investigation body based in Washington State.
The first report was filed from Ririe, a community located 300 miles east of Boise. On October 24, a single witness described seeing a large, light-colored object moving at high speed. The sighting occurred from a vehicle on Heise Road. Investigators have assigned the event to incident report number 201970, and the file is currently open.
A second sighting was recorded on October 28, shortly after 8 p.m., in the Boise area. Witnesses described the craft as triangular and approximately 50 yards in size. The object was reported to be traveling in a southeastern direction. Three distinct lights were visible on the craft during the observation. This case is documented under report number 20206.
Both encounters involved single crafts flying at altitudes below 1,200 feet. The reporting period coincided with the Halloween holiday week. The National UFO Reporting Center is reviewing the data provided by the observers.
The center is seeking additional information from other potential witnesses in the Ririe and Boise areas. Individuals who observed either event between October 24 and 28 are encouraged to contact the organization to provide further details to the investigators.
