✦ AI summary

This is an FBI FD-302a continuation report (redacted) documenting a witness interview about a September 2023 UAP sighting. Witnesses observed an object near a hotel/gate area that remained constant in size and light intensity throughout the observation. One witness noted the airspace had been restricted for scheduled drone tests at the time of the sighting. Another witness in a second vehicle tried unsuccessfully to get a companion to see the object. That night a storm passed through and the witness's hotel-room TV lost signal; unsettled by this, he checked whether other TVs in the hotel were also out. He reported disturbed sleep and unusual dreams for the following two nights. No vehicle electronic interference was reported. Names throughout are redacted. The document is a short continuation page (page 2 of 2) of a longer FBI interview record related to a September 2023 UAP encounter.
