UFO sighting excites alien hunters
UFO investigators are targeting Suffolk in their quest to find alien life.
The county has become the focus for alien hunters, in a case worthy of X files agents Mulder and Scully, after a strange sighting of an apparently alien craft in the skies over east Suffolk.
Eagle-eyed residents living along the banks of the River Orwell may have witnessed a close encounter of the third kind if they had glanced up at the starry sky.
A strange yellow D-shaped object was spotted overhead by a man in his garden at Freston.
He watched in wonder as the UFO changed shape before it altered course and flew off at around 11pm on August 5.
The man called the operator who put him through to Contact – an organisation based in Oxfordshire that records and researches UFO sightings.
The object could not have been very high as the witness saw an aeroplane flying above it, but he knew it was not the moon as he could see this clearly.
Contact spokesman, Michael Sopher, said: "Any sightings over the Ipswich area are of great interest to us due to the historic events at Rendlesham. New evidence recently released from the government admits that this event was a proper UFO landing."
Rendlesham is renowned worldwide for the events in 1980 when American airmen claimed a UFO landed in the forest at their airbase.
He added: "In East Anglia reported sightings differ from other areas. There are lots of reports of strange objects flying inland from the sea and then back again.
"There was a wave of UFO sightings in Birmingham in June. Many people reported seeing lights zig-zagging in the sky near the airport.
"At the time there was a geomagnetic storm which we believe causes people to be more spontaneous and tends to make people who see something more likely to report it."
