SPRING 1978, CAZADORES, GRAND CANARY, LAS PALMAS, SPAIN, FOUR PEOPLE:

Brief summary of the event and follow-up:

Francisco Padron Hernandez, ufologist in Grand Canary Island, reportedly told that in Cazadores, Grand Canary Island, Spain, on Spring 1978, at 08:30 p.m., four witnesses, including a 45-year old man, 2 young girls and an elderly goat herder watched a bright light descending at high speed from the nearby mountain summit in the same area a similar light remains static in the area. A low humming sound was heard at this time.

Within the light, the 45-year old witness saw a square-shaped craft, about 4 meters in diameter. The object began to hover about 15 meters from the witness and then descended, knocked over a nearby rock-wall and at the same time there was a terrific wind that appeared to emanate from the object itself.

It emitted a very powerful light and inside, through a transparent section, the witness saw numerous man-like figures moving about, back and forth as if performing unknown tasks.

The luminous rectangular-shaped object remained on the ground for about 10 minutes and then left. At the same time the witnesses noticed the reaction of nearby farm animals and guard dogs; which acted extremely nervous and disturbed.

The craft left at very high speed in the direction of the Mt Teide Volcano.

It is said that Ground traces were found.

[Ref. ar1:] ALBERT ROSALES:

Albert Rosales indicates in his catalogue that in Cazadores, Grand Canary Island, Spain, on Spring 1978, at 2030, four witnesses, including a 45-year old man, 2 young girls and an elderly goat herder watched a bright light descending at high speed from the nearby mountain summit in the same area a similar light remains static in the area. A low humming sound is heard at this time. Within the light, the 45-year old witness could see a square shaped craft about 4 meters in diameter. The object began to hover about 15 meters from the witness and then descends, knocks over a nearby rock-wall and at the same time accompanied by a terrific wind that appears to emanate from the object itself. It emitted a very powerful light and inside through a transparent section the witness could see numerous man-like figures moving about, back and forth as if performing unknown tasks. The luminous rectangular shaped object remained on the ground for about 10 minutes and then left. Ground traces were found. At the same time the witnesses were able to notice the reaction of nearby farm animals and guard dogs which acted extremely nervous and disturbed. The craft left at very high speed in the direction of the Mt Teide Volcano.
