FOUR UFOs CAUSE CITYWIDE
BLACKOUT IN ARGENTINA
     Eyewitnesses spotted four UFOs over Bariloche,
a city in southern Argentina, immediately prior and
during two citywide electrical blackouts.
     Bariloche is a popular ski resort in the Andes,
on the south shore of Lago (Lake) Nahuel Huapi,
located 1,040 kilometers (650 miles) southwest
of Buenos Aires.
     The first blackout took place at 7:45 p.m. on
Sunday, April 12, 1998 and lasted until 10:11 p.m.
"Spokesmen for Cooperativa Electricidade
Bariloche (CEB) said the origin of the electrical
blackout that darkened a great part of the city
has no explanation.  No cause exists to explain
the occurrence."
     CEB linemen traced the source of the power
shutdown to transmission lines leading to the
Cipresales transformer substation.
     Power was briefly restored for four minutes.
But at 10:15 p.m., Bariloche's lights went off
again, and the city remained without power
until 1:30 a.m. Monday, April 13.
     According to the newspaper Diario Rio Negro,
"Gustavo and Beatriz Riveros saw strange lights
hovering above Cerro Carbon (hill) in the eastern
section of the city  Beatriz saw two of the lights
'fuse together' over the Lions (a land feature on
the hillside--J.T.) just as the lights went out.
Other witnesses reported strange illuminations
over Lago Nahuel Huapi."
     "In the barrio San Francisco, a woman saw
'a ball of red light' descending in a zigzag pattern
toward the large pedestrian stairway at Tiscornia."
     A "luminous disc" was also seen near the
intersection of Calle Fernando Beschtete and
Calle La Paz.
     In the barrio Nicolas Lavalle, eyewitnesses
saw four luminous UFOs hovering overhead.
One witness, Sara Salizar, said, "They are a large
spacecraft and three smaller ones that attached
themselves to the larger one over and over again."
     Andrea Capararo told the Argentine news agency
TOLAM that she and her sisters, Natalia and
Carolina, "at 11:30 (p.m.) we observed in the sky
a kind of large plate with twinkling red, yellow, green
and blue lights, and another object a little bit longer
with red and yellow lights.  The luminous objects
seemed permanently supported in the air for several
minutes, then moved away towards the lake."
    Natalia and Carolina Capararo described the
saucer as resembling "a tomato bigger than an
airplane" and flying toward Cerro Carbon, east of
the barrio.
     "Various inhabitants of the upper (highland)
region of the city, for their part, told radio and TV
reporters that they had first seen a formation of
stars moving across the sky with twinkling lights
colored red, yellow and green and with a brilliant
white radiance, between 10:30 and 11:45 p.m.
Sunday night."
     "The moving lights appeared to be attached
to an elongated form and another form resembling
a small bottle, the inhabitants said.  The union of
the two objects produced 'a great star,' like a great
electrical discharge, and the lights of the city went
out."
     Bariloche is the site of two of Argentina's most
famous incidents, the Dr. Tarda case in December
1968 and the jetliner pilot case in June 1995.

NEON GREEN UFO SEEN IN
NORTHERN VIRGINIA
     On Friday, April 3, 1998, at 6:30 p.m., a UFO
described as "a small, neon green, egg-shaped
object" flew over downtown Fredericksburg,
Virginia (population 19,027).
     Several local residents, plus four officers of
the Fredericksburg police, witnessed the UFO's
overflight.
     Eyewitness Robert Tolen of Spotsylvania
County spotted the UFO while he was at a pay
phone at Eubank's Amoco station on Princess
Anne Street.  "I believe it was a UFO," Tolen
was quoted as saying in the Fredericksburg
Free-Lance Star, "I don't care what anyone says."
     Michael Todaro of Stafford County "was at a
baseball field at Falmouth Elementary School"
when he spied the UFO, saying, "It was one of
the weirdest things I've ever seen."
     "If someone else hadn't seen it, I never would
have told anyone about it.  Never.  Never," Todaro
told the Free-Lance Star.
     According to the newspaper, the four officers
"were in the parking lot behind police headquarters"
when they sighted the object.
    The newspaper checked with the Wallops
Island missile test range near Chincoteague to
determine if the witnesses had actually witnesses
a rocket test.  But a spokesman for Wallops Island
told them that there "were no tests on Friday."
     Fredericksburg is just south of Route 3, about
57 miles (91 kilometers) north of Richmond, the
state capital.
     The Free-Lance Star also reported a UFO
incident near the Patuxent Naval Air Test Center
in Lexington Park, Maryland (population 9,743).
"Witnesses saw a blue UFO that same evening"
near the center on Highway 235, and "It hovered
