MEXICO: UFOs OVER CHILPANCINGO

Several unidentified flying objects were seen flying over the city of Chilpancingo for a little over half an hour, causing curiosity and a certain measure of concern among the dozens who took to the streets to observe the phenomenon.

The UFO presence – some 15 objects – lasted little more than 30 minutes, being seen from 9:30 to 10:00 o’clock.

Hundreds of people, including security guards from the Palace of Government and employees of the Servicio Medico Forense (SEMEFO) were witnesses to the flying objects.

“They were metallic grey in color, spinning from north to south, lit by the sun that rose in the east. That’s why they shone, since [the sunlight] was hitting them head on. They moved at an even pace and made geometric formations in the air. First nine UFOs went by, then two more, but the last two moved quickly and lower, making them easier to observe, or rather, they were larger,” agreed physicians and SEMEFO personnel who viewed the phenomenon with astonishment.

A reporter took several photos, but the camera did not pick up the objects, which were observed by dozens of people, in their majority employees of the District Attorney’s Office and the Office of Expert Services, who were able to observe them.

Ana Luisa Cid remarks: According to the opinion given by researcher Jesus Martinez Castro, who forwarded this story to me, it should be noted that on the very same date of the Chilpancingo sightings, and with only a few minutes difference, a military airplane belonging to the Mexican Air Force suffered an accident and fell into the sea at Pie de la Cuesta, a few kilometers from Acapulco. (16 December 2006 at 9:25 hrs.)

The causes of the accident remain unknown and none of the bodies of the crew of the Antonov AN32B, registration number 3103, have been recovered.
