Argentina: Light Paralyzes Motorist in the Laguna
del Pescado Vicinity
By Andrea Pérez Simondini
Quarantine has not proved a hindrance for
extraordinary encounters with lights. This was the case for Alejandro (a
pseudonym, as he did not want to disclose his real name). Things became
complicated on his return home.
Alejandro is a young man from Rincón de Nogoyá,
Province of Entre Rios, and is not a believer in these matters. He travels
sporadically for work-related reasons from home to the city of Victoria. The
event occurred on 1 July 2020 at approximately 20:15 hours. After getting on
Route 11 toward his home - 22 kilometers distant - he had an experience he
would never forget.
It all happened as he got off Route 11 to enter a
rural dirt road that took him to the house that he shares with his parents,
some 5 km off the road. A light crossed his path at ground level, 300 meters
from his dwelling.
As he faced it, the light rose vertically in a
single motion to rotate and point at his car. Something customary in these
events took place: the car's engine died, along with anything connected to the
electrical system (lights and radio).
The light remained over one of the treetops
customarily found in the local wilderness. Gripped by fear, the witnessed
opened his car's door and ran across the field to his house. Upon entering, he
told his mother what had happened.
The light was intensely white, bright and
powerful. The witness could not make out any structures or details within it.
Only its movement and the description that it had no further glare, not when it
was centimeters from the floor, nor when it was over the treetops at a height
of 3.5 meters approximately.
He was able to tell his mother the story. After
she had calmed him down, she asked him to take her to where the encounter took
place. Upon arriving, the light had vanished. The car door was open with no
apparent damage. They scoured the area looking for some strange residue but
without success. Finally, they boarded the car and returned home, unsure of
what it was that Alejandro had experienced.
Events of this sort are not uncommon in the area. Route
11, and specifically this location, is known as a spot where cars are chased by
these lights. We have already reported on the matter in earlier occasions
(http://www.visionovni.com.ar/archivos/640).
It has been a long time since we have received an event
of this sort. You will agree that these are the kinds of cases we enjoy delving
into, as they yield stronger proof.
Unfortunately we were unable to visit the site,
but did not want to overlook referencing this case as part of the case
histories of Victoria in the province of Entre Rios.
