AKRON, Ohio – A strange, dark, dome-shaped object caused motorists to scratch their heads on the Akron Highway on Sunday afternoon.
The unidentified non-flying object quickly made the rounds on social media. The 330ToGo Facebook page posted a photo he received after the large metal object apparently got stuck around a bend on I-76 in a close encounter of the curved kind.
It was later stuck and went on.
