Hot Air Balloon Drops in on Chagrin River Resident: Gates Mills Police Blotter

The following information was supplied by the Gates Mills Police Department

Hot-air visit: A Chagrin River Road resident had no intention of hosting a landing on May 6, so she was shocked to see a hot air balloon descend on her lawn around 8:23 p.m.

The woman called Gates Mills Police to report the surprise landing. An officer spoke with the balloonist, who said he had to make an emergency landing because of changing winds and impending darkness. The balloon was soon removed from the caller's property.
