Interesting. I wonder if they stopped following the UFO because the fuel was running low or because they could not keep up with the speed of the object.

So was it a UFO or not? That's what a lot of Britons are wondering after the U.K.'s biggest-selling newspaper reported that a police helicopter in Wales had chased a flying saucer - and the police responded by giving their own, much less dramatic account. "Stunned police gave chase to a UFO after it attacked their helicopter near a military base," the Sun tabloid breathlessly recounted in its Friday edition. "The mystery aircraft zoomed straight at the chopper as the three-man cop crew prepared to land." The incident apparently happened in the early morning of June 8 near Cardiff as the chopper was waiting to land at the St. Athan RAF base. "The pilot banked sharply to avoid being hit, then launched into a high-speed pursuit," the Sun said "But he was forced to give up the chase as the helicopter's fuel ran low - and the UFO escaped." |
