ARGENTINA: POLICEMAN VANISHES INEXPLICABLY FOR 20 HOURS
An officer of the cattle-theft division "vanished" for nearly twenty hours
Found in a fetal position: Officer Pucheta escaped from the place he had been on Thursday night after having come across "two small, red-eyed creatures that chased him and gave him telepathic commands." He was found yesterday afternoon some 20 kilometers away from the site in a fetal position.
GENERAL PICO (News agencies) -- A police officer from the cattle-theft division, identified as Sergio Pucheta, 28, "vanished" on Thursday night while patrolling the rural region of Dorila, remaining in that condition for some 20 hours, causing great concern in the force. According to some researchers who contacted the young man, the event involved a UFO.
Pucheta's disappearance took place on 21:20 hours Thursday near the La Barrancosa ranch while he patrolled rural roads. At 16:30 hours yesterday, the police officer was found "numb and in a fetal position" more than 20 kilometers away from that location, between the towns of Trili and Quemu Quemu.
He was transferred from that location by ambulance to the Gobernador Centeno Hospital where he was given tests, was visited by several judicial authorities, and remained under observation last night after tests which shed "normal" results. Likewise, physicians said that the patient was "lucid, hydrated and with a balanced cardiovascular and respiratory condition."
Police researchers informed EL DIARIO that on Thursday night the young officer, having some five years' experience with the force, was driving a Honda 125cc motorcycle along the rural roads of Dorila. Amid this activity, Pucheta "requested backup over his cell phone" at 21:20 hours from a site near the La Barrancosa ranch.
This was the last contact between the police corporal and his fellow officers, since 15 minutes later, when a squad car arrived from General Pico, police only found Pucheta's motorcycle and some of his belongings, including his firearm (broken in three parts), his helmet, a "handy" and the cell phone with which he had previously requested assistance.
In the meantime, while not having any signs of the missing officer, Regional Unit II ordered a search of the site where Pucheta vanished. Rural roads and farms were combed by the police in an effort that involved elements from various units.
Meanwhile, yesterday morning -- after some 10 hours without any word on Pucheta's whereabouts -- Juan Carlos Tierno, Minister of Safety, Government and Justice and Ricardo Baudaux, the Provincial Chief of Police, arrived in Dorila for a briefing on the situation and the search being carried out by the police, all within the framework of a rainy pre-dawn and early morning that hampered the following of any traces.
Likewise, it was known that around that time Tierno requested copies of some videotapes that Pucheta was compiling with regard to the presence of "strange lights". The minister returned to the Pampan capital with Badeaux past noon.
Sergio Pucheta was found around 16:30 hours on the shoulders of a rural road between Trili and Quemu Quemu, some 20 km from the site where his appurtenances were found. Sources indicated that the officer was found "numb and in a fetal position" by a farm worker who was aware of the search from media sources.
The authorities reported swiftly to the site to confirm that the young man was "in good health, without any signs of having suffered violence, but somewhat out of it," unable to clearly answer [questions] about what had befallen him.
But with the passing of time, it was reported that Pucheta had experienced a UFO episode near La Barrancosa, and that he had in recent weeks been involved with the recording of "strange lights" in the company of others.
Moreover, reliable sources informed this newspaper that Pucheta had escaped from the place where he had been on Thursday night after running into "two small, red-eyed beings that pursued him and gave him telepathic commands."

UFO history: The 1974 Santurce, P.R. Film
Every so often a little bit of UFO history comes our way. This time it takes the shape of a short videoclip of a landmark documentary produced and narrated by publicist Jorge Marquina in 1975 and bearing the title "Platillos Voladores Sobre Puerto Rico: Documento Confidencial" (
Flying Saucers Over Puerto Rico: A Secret File). Appearing in the sequence of images is the 1974 UFO that appeared over the former Eastern Airlines building in Santurce -- a large district of San Juan, P.R. -- during a midnight-to-morning commercial shoot for a popular rum company.
Following Mr. Marquina's exposition of the facts, the viewer sees an airliner fly over the building, then the sudden appearance of an unexplained source of light that navigates is off camera, toward the enigmatic mountain rainforest known as El Yunque.
Marquina ends by asking: "Where did it come from? What did it come for? Where did it go?" - questions that remain unclear 30 years later.

Mexico: Chance UFO in Chichen Itza, Yucatan
Photos taken by Jaime Melo, a resident of Puerto Rico, during his visit to the Chichen-Itza archaeological site in Yucatan (Mexico)
Taken on July 6, 2005 at 13:38 hours using a 3.2 megapixel Polaroid PDC-3070
This evidence was provided by Peter (sic) to researcher Lucy Guzman who in turn forwarded it to Ana Luisa Cid for a joint investigation.
Preliminary analyses shed favorable results, finding that the material is indeed genuine. We likewise obtained a considerable similarity with a photo taken at the very same pyramid of Kulkulkan in 2005 by Argentinean tourist Alejandro Gabriel Garcia during a tour to the Yucatan Peninsula. We therefore believe that chance UFO sightings occur in the Mayan ruins of Mexico, since both witnesses state that no object could be seen in the sky at the moment that the photos were taken.
The names Jaime Melo and Peter are pseudonyms given at the request of the interested parties.

Mexico: A Chance UFO Sighting at Teotihuacan (1982)
A Chance UFO Sighting at Teotihuacan (1982)
Photographic evidence from renowned Mexican physician Adalberto Dom�nguez Valdes, taken in 1982 with an analog Kodak 110 camera.
Dr. Dominguez had already spoken earlier of this image delivered the material to me last Friday, February 24, 2006
Eyewitness Account:
" was in Teotihuacan with my wife, my children and my brother's family. We were on holiday and that's why I took several photos as a keepsake. My intent upon pressing the shutter was to have my family heading toward the Pyramid of Quetzalcoatl, using the impressive ancient structures as a background. They can be seen on the far right within the photo.
"When I took the photo, there was nothing unusual to be seen and upon developing the roll of film, my brother became aware of the possible UFOs, since they are in fact three, forming a triangle, although the largest one is highlighted. We subsequently checked the negative and realized that they could also be seen. I then decided to make a blow-up of the image and now I have it hanging as a framed picture in my home -- a lovely reminder of my first chance UFO encounter."
