UFO AND ALIEN SIGHTED
IN NORTHERN ITALY
Early Sunday morning, March 8, 1998, an
Italian farmer spotted a UFO hovering above
his field. The incident took place in Lombardia,
just outside the small city of Rho, 30 kilometers
(18 miles) northwest of Milano (Milan).
The farmer described the UFO as "a white
object in the form of an upside-down pear" that
"hovered over a field of grain."
Since he was within shouting distance of his
farmhouse, he called for his wife. She joined him
at once, and the couple observed the UFO "for
nearly a half hour."
Midway through the sighting, the couple reported,
a hatch slid open, and an occupant emerged. The
witnesses described "the alien" as "a being about
60 to 80 centimeters (30 to 40 inches) high, with
two huge black eyes."
The occupant "floated" in the air close to the
object for about ten minutes. The occupant then
reentered the UFO, and the object "suddenly rose
vertically as it illuminated itself."
The case is being investigated by Italian
ufologist Giancarlo D'Alessandro of Centro Italiano
di Studi Ufologici (CISU). (See the Italian newspaper
La Padania for March 15, 1998.)
The previous night, Saturday, March 7, 1998,
Carabineri (Italian police--J.T.), port authorities and
local police watched a UFO "plunge headlong" through
the sky in Termoli, a port on the Adriatic Sea.
The alert sounded at 6:30 p.m. Police described
the UFO as "a luminous object that plunged headlong
into the sea with a smoky luminous trail."
Termoli is in Campobasso province approximately
232 kilometers (145 miles) east of Rome. (See the
newspaper Il Resto del Carlino for March 9, 1998.
Grazie a Eduardo Russo, Renzo Cabassi, Gian
Paulo Grassino, Goffredo Pierpaoli, Marcelo Pupilli
e Giancarlo D'Alessandro di CISU per questo
rapporto.)
(Editor's Note: Sibenik, Croatia, just across the
Adriatic Sea from Termoli, was the site of a UFO
landing earlier this year.)
FLORIDA UFO FLAP ENTERS
ITS THIRD WEEK
Florida's UFO flap entered its third week with
more sightings reports flooding in from the Orlando
and Pensacola areas.
James J. of Cocoa Beach, Fla. (population 12,123),
a city 7 miles (11 kilometers) south of Cape Canaveral,
says he witnessed the flyover of two UFOs on
Saturday, March 7, 1998, followed by the launch of
two D-25 Trident missiles from a U.S. Navy submarine.
"I saw those UFOs as well around 6:45 that evening,"
James reported. "I thought they were UFOs because
I've had three sightings in the past six months."
"It was dusk. I saw two white glowing lights as if
they were (enveloped) in a cloud. As I traveled south on
(Highway) A1A in Cocoa Beach, the objects hovered and
fled. Then I noticed something. Contrails coming up
from the ocean. I have a friend at the Kennedy Space
Center, and she said there were no launches scheduled
for that day."
"We saw the contrails (again) a couple of days later,"
he reported, adding that "no scheduled launches" were
set for that day, either. "Florida Today claimed that the
Navy was conducting missile tests over the area."
Bermuda's Royal Gazette of March 10, 1998 stated
that the missiles had been launched from the Trident
submarine USS West Virginia.
On Wednesday, March 18, 1998, between 10 and
10:30 p.m., Josh Harris was standing on his front lawn
in Sebring, Fla. (population 8,900), a town on Highway 17
90 miles (144 kilometers) southeast of Tampa, when
he spotted a UFO.
"At first I saw six bright orange lights in the northeast
sky that disappeared," he reported. "Four lights in a line
appeared in the eastern sky, then also disappeared.
Back at the original location, eight new lights appeared.
There were four lights, with another four lights in a row
beneath them."
On Friday evening, March 20, 1998, Don and Cindy
Rash saw a UFO in their hometown of Gulf Breeze, Fla.
(population 5,530), located in the Florida panhandle
7 miles (11 kilometers) south of Pensacola. They
described the object as "a disc with lights all around it"
hovering "over the big bridge" connecting Gulf Breeze
and Pensacola Beach. This was Don Rash's second
UFO sighting of the month.
That morning, Friday, March 20, 1998, John S., his
wife and his son were "driving west on (Interstate Highway)
I-4 approximately 20 miles (32 kilometers) outside of
Orlando at 7:45 a.m. when I witnessed something in the
sky overhead."
Orlando (population 164,693) is located 229 miles
(366 kilometers) north of Miami.
"It was a grayish vapor trail that moved to the right,
left, right, then left again, all in what appeared like
quarter-mile (0.6 kilometer) increments," he reported.
"This was right over the interstate. It looked like some
drivers noticed it because I saw some looking up as
we passed them. I couldn't see a shape or anything
flying at the end of the trail (contrail). Also, it didn't
seem like it was turning but more like changing
directions back on itself."
The following day, Saturday, March 21, 1998,
Jeff Ritzmann, a Maryland man vacationing in Florida,
spotted a UFO while standing outside Chan's Cafe,
located in the Best Western Hotel near Gulf Breeze, Fla.
According to columnist Carole Baker of the
Pensacola Beach Islander, Ritzmann grabbed his
camcorder and "shot an approximate 13-second video
