UFOs REPORTED IN MONTE HERMOSO
The UFO phenomenon manifested itself last night when several drivers transiting from Monte Hermoso to Bahía Blanca saw red and white lights in the sky for several minutes and later vanished over the fields.
Drivers on their way back from the beach at Monte Hermoso to Bahia Blanca reported having seen several flying saucers (UFOs) on National Hwy 3 and Route 229, which provides access to the locality of Punta Alta.
Carlos Coria, a resident of Punta Alta and one of the witnesses to the event, said that "he was driving along Route 3 when to the left of the road my family and I observed two flying objects of great [luminous] intensity and whitish in color."
"Afterward, having turned onto Route 229, we also saw red lights suspended in the air for 15 minutes, but then seemed to turn off, as though there was a landing strip in the field," Coria added.
Sources of the Traffic Police of Bahia Blanca reported that "many people remarked about what had happened, but it isn't something that can be investigated by the police."
"Several drivers phoned us last night to report that they had seen UFOs at the 630 km marker of Route 3 in the location known as Bajo Hondo,: added the spokesman.
