A report published on January 12, 2026, on the website of the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC) describes a disturbing observation that allegedly occurred in Jamshedpur, in the eastern Indian state of Jharkhand. The incident reportedly took place at around 1:20 a.m. and lasted approximately three minutes. Two individuals claim to have witnessed the event.

According to the testimony, the observers noticed a large, unidentified creature positioned on the roof of their home. The entity was partially concealed behind a wall measuring approximately eight feet in height. Witnesses described it as having a large, round head, visible hands, and dark grey skin, with no clothing.

The creature was estimated to be over eight feet tall and positioned roughly 15 meters away. Its movements appeared unusual, suggesting it might attempt to jump or take flight. The witnesses also reported hearing a high-pitched sound, similar to a child’s cry but distinctly different in tone.

Feeling threatened, the two individuals reportedly retreated quietly inside their house and locked the door. Moments later, they stated that all the street dogs in the area began barking simultaneously, adding to their sense of fear. They did not exit the house again until the following morning.

No physical evidence or photographic documentation was provided to support the account. However, the reaction of the animals and the detailed nature of the description are highlighted as notable elements of the incident.

As with all reports submitted to NUFORC, this testimony has not been independently verified. It joins a wide range of global reports involving unexplained aerial phenomena or alleged encounters with unknown entities. Whether the result of misinterpretation, environmental factors, or something more unusual, such accounts continue to raise questions about the nature of unexplained sightings worldwide.
