Spain: A UFO on the Algeciras to Ronda Highway (1958)
From AndalucĂa Misteriosa (Mysterious Andalusia)
By Angel Carretero Olmedo - GEIFO
YEAR 1958
SIGHTING OF A SPHERICAL OBJECT ON A GIVEN DAY IN THE YEAR 1958 ON THE ROAD FROM ALGECIRAS (CADIZ) TO RONDA (MALAGA). Estimated Date.
Reference 19580000 between Algeciras and Ronda.
Driving in the early hours of the morning, the witness was accompanied in his vehicle by his wife, his father and a friend with the goal of spending a few hours hunting. In the vicinity of Cuevas del Becerro, they began to see a light that they believed at first was that of a patrol car.
As they approached the light, they realized that it was a strange object resting in the middle of the highway, covering it from end to end.
It was a circular artifact resembling an inverted soup bowl, fiery red in color, with a dome on top, lighting up everything around it. It measured approximately 7 meters in diameter by some 2 meters in height.
The driver stopped his car some 200 meters from the aforementioned object, waiting for the road to become empty again.
After a while, seeing that the UFO had no intentions of budging, the driver decided to approach slowly. At that point, the object began rising steadily into the air, eventually reaching an approximate altitude of 1000 meters. It flew over the car and landed again, this time some 200 meters behind the witnesses.
This behavior stimulated the curiosity of those aboard the vehicle. The driver turned around in the road and made an effort to approach the mysterious object once more. In this instance, the artifact rose silently into the air again, but unlike its previous behavior, it made a quick zig-zag and vanished at high speed.
Remarks: No investigation was conducted at the time, and therefore, rendering an objective opinion on the event is somewhat difficult.
