[Ref. ar1:] ALBERT ROSALES:

Albert Rosales indicates in his catalogue that in Chelmsford, England, on January 28, 1978, at night, a young couple driving through town saw a bright light descend from the sky in front of them, as it got closer they could see that it was a brightly lit disc shaped craft with a large viewing window where several figures could be seen apparently looking out. The object moved away rapidly and was lost from sight.

Albert Rosales indicates that the source is "Bufora Journal Vol. 7 #1."

Points to consider:

Information is regrettably insufficient to form an opinion about this report. The names and the ages of the witnesses are not known, it is not known whether the case was investigated or not, or whether it is merely a reader's letter or bit of newspaper article. Descriptions of the occupants and many other basic data are missing.
