May 21, 1953 – Kingman, Arizona:

The alleged 1953 Kingman UFO crash is one of the most controversial and mysterious crash-retrieval stories in UFO history. Supporters often call it “Arizona’s Roswell,” while skeptics argue there is little hard evidence beyond witness testimony and decades of retellings.

According to UFO researchers, the event occurred on May 21, 1953, near Kingman in the Arizona desert. The story claims that multiple unidentified flying objects were seen in the area before at least one craft crashed northwest of the city, possibly near the Hualapai Mountains or Paradise Valley region.
