UFOs spotted over Bedfordshire

TEENAGERS in Appenine Way rec in Leighton captured what they thought was a UFO on a mobile phone a few weeks ago before all the national sightings started.

The image clearly shows a very bright object in the night sky which the teenagers said hovered for ages and was accompanied by red flashing lights. The young people spend a lot of time in the park and dismissed claims it could have been an aeroplane.

Paranormal activity is suspected elsewhere over the streets of Bedfordshire after people saw flashing lights over Clapham and Luton.

In particular, the group Scope-Paranormal.com has been analysing footage which was captured by an eagle-eyed resident at 9.45pm on Saturday June 7 in Clapham, Beds.

It shows seven red lights moving in formation for around two-and-a-half minutes and these lights may have been seen in Leighton.

And the group, which covers Bedfordshire and Hertfordshire, have stated a very similar incident was reported by three police officers who were travelling in a force helicopter in South Wales the same evening.

Scope-Paranormal.com spokesman, Sharon Chesterman, said: "Put together with the witness statement, we believe there was definitely something going on.

"The interesting thing is that there have been a number of similar sightings in America recently. Those also show seven red lights moving in a circle and then one drops down to create a triangle.

"A UFO is just that – an unidentified flying object. We are not claiming that there are necessarily little green men flying something on film.

"But we want to keep a full track of what sightings there are. Anyone who makes a sighting can let us know about it by filling in a form at www.scope-paranormal.com so that we can keep a track of what is happening in the area."

As always, your light-years ahead LBO will be investigating.
