Three more report seeing a UFO

THREE more islanders have reported seeing possible UFOs.

People previously contacted the Guernsey Press to report mysterious glowing orbs over the island on 8 and 23 August.

St Peter Port resident Terry Jordan said his neighbour confirmed he was not imagining things when he spotted a strange red object travelling at about the same speed as a small plane.

‘That night I was walking down my lane where I live when I saw a red light in the sky going towards the north of the island,’ he said.

‘When I reached the terrace where I live I called out one of my neighbours just to make sure that I was not seeing things. He also saw it but could not explain what it could be and nor could I.’

Mr Jordan called the police and harbour authorities to see if anybody else had reported it.

But no one had, he said.

‘They suggested it could have been a Chinese lantern but I said it was moving too fast for that and when it got over the north of the island it stopped and suddenly disappeared.

‘I am very pleased that somebody else has seen it as when I told the police about it they thought it was quite funny. I told them that I had not been drinking or taking drugs and that I definitely saw this red object in the sky.’

He was sure it was not a plane.

    It was an object, it was flying and nobody has identified it yet. Sounds to me like a UFO, not a “possible” UFO.

    I saw something of the same description with friends over Worcester six week ago, we ruled out Chinese lanterns due to the speed and sudden change of direction of one of the “globes”

    I believe the BBC also reported on some sightings in Holland recently.

    UFO’s are spotted all the time in Amsterdam, the Aliens must be trying to abduct people from outside the cafe’s.
