One or two of those balloons landed near Molson, WA setting stubble
fields
afire during the fall of 1945.

One of these landed in the Livonia/Farmington Hills area, a suburb of
Detroit. I cannot find any newspaper articles from the day on the
landing. To my knowlege, no one was injured and no device exploded.


You can't find any article. USA government asked newspapers not to publish
any news on the baloons and their effects.
Japan having no feed back thought it was a failure and dropped the action.
