Mrs Flores threw stones at the being, whereupon he walked over to an instrument resembling a radio and, moving a wheel on it, quickly absorbed all the netting. The farm woman approached the pen with a cudgel, upon which the being threw his instrument at her several times; it returned to him like a boomerang, after inflicting superficial cuts on her arms. The entity picked up the machine, which had absorbed the net, as well as a bag containing sheep entrails, and put them into a rucksack on his back.

Two 6-foot tall men appeared beside it, dressed in white coveralls with broad sashes, they had shoulder length hair and ware barefoot. These beings walked stiffly, without bending their legs.

When the wife opened the door and called out to her husband, in fright, the two turned around and walked to the object; all five entered and the object rose vertically. Footprints, both large and small, were later found at the site. Source: Jader Pereira, FSR Case Histories 5 Location.

Lorenzen, The Shadow of The Unknown Date: January 1968 Location: Near Rome Center, Michigan Time: night Summary: The main witness, Dan Welch, was sitting in the back seat of a car on the passenger side when he felt a sensation of light coming from behind him. At first he paid little attention to this thinking it was just bright car lights coming up from behind them. However, after it happened again he paused then turned around to look out the back window of the car to discover that there was no other car on the road behind them. Puzzled, he continued to look out the back window. Then approximately 500 feet in the clouds, the outline of an oval shaped blue light with a similar beam of blue light came on to engulf the small town which they had just driven through. They were driving up a small incline, so it was very easy to discern the oval shape of the blue beam of light. It was so distinct that he could clearly make out the oval edge of the beam in the darkness of the night. It was the most intense, beautiful blue he had ever seen, but strangely he could look at the light without squinting. The awestruck witness could tell that there was a definite on-off pattern to the light, which reminded him of a gigantic flash bulb. As he continued watching the UFO came on again but this time directly over the road behind the car. It was definitely moving in a SE to NW direction. The next sequence was of the UFO appearing directly over the car. The main witness distinctly remembers looking up into this light. But it was no longer blue but instead a very intense white light, he remembers that it hurt his eyes. The witness caught a last glimpse of the UFO again approximately 1,000 yards in the distance. Upon arriving at their cottage the main witness noticed that it had taken an extra hour and a half to get there also upon arrival no one in the car mentioned the UFO. To this day it has never been discussed among the witnesses. Not long after the encounter the main witness began to get severe headaches. An interesting aside: A few years later the main witness was now living in Toledo Ohio and one morning was backing out of his driveway when he noticed an old style black Cadillac parked in front of his house. He pulled away from the house and the black Cadillac starts following him right into the parking lot of the school where he taught. The Cadillac proceeded to pull-up in the parking space right next to his. He was very concerned about who this person was and why they were following him. When he looked over to see who it was, he was met by a pair of icy, glaring eyes. To this day, he will never forget how these eyes stared right through him. The eyes reminded the witness of two black coals. The witness stared back for a few seconds but the quickly walked into the building hoping to catch a glimpse of the license number. He constantly kept the Cadillac in his peripheral vision all the time as he walked to and entering the building. On entering the building there was a door immediately to his left that he entered where the room included windows all along the side facing the parking lot from which he had just come in from. It had taken him less than 5 seconds to get to the window to observe this Cadillac…but it was gone.

Summary: On one particular night glowing objects were spotted beyond the fence line of the base and in the distant perimeter. The staff at the Air Force Base pretty much ignored these lights on the first night, wondering if it was just someone playing around, or not thinking a whole lot about it. On the second night a couple of Military Security Police were up on the flight line when they observed an object above them and as they watched they saw a white beam of light came down from the object. The beam of light stayed and moved around the flight line. The Security Police were in a position to challenge the beam of light, and when they came near to it … it skirted them. The light almost matched the Police Officers moves. The Police challenged the light on three different occasions only to have it move around them. Source: Brian Vike, HBCC UFO Research Date: Jan.

Richard Greenwell, APRO s Peruvian representative, is investigating the sighting and the photograph, and points out that if it is authenticated, it will not only be the first photo of TWO objects taken at one time, but probably one of the very few photos of a UFO which show a clearly defined outline and the typical disc-shape.

They looked at it for a few seconds before they could comment on it and decided it was not a cloud since the edges were crisp and there was some obvious 3 dimensionality to it. The object was huge since they actually had to move their heads from left to right to see it end to end. Within 15 to 20 seconds the object seemed to shrink in size, tilt and vanish. To their estimation the whole incident lasted not more than 30 seconds. They ran down to the school to report what they saw and a group of the other children were very excited when they saw the witnesses. To their surprise their excitement was due to the fact that both had been missing for over 2 hours and had missed lunch and the head count. Fortunately for them the Franciscan monk in charge of the school was very sympathetic and offered to call the local US air base Torrejon to ask about the phenomenon. The base reported that there had been no scheduled test flights that day but were very interested in a personal report.
