-
- The police precinct of Garza confirmed yesterday the
discovery of a heifer with parts sectioned off. The event occured under
unknown circumstances and the incisions resemble those now seen on a daily
basis in the fields of the provinces of La Pampa and Buenos Aires.
-
- The animal was found yesterday in a hilly region of a
place known as Quimilioj in the department of San Martin by a local resident,
Joaquin Lemos: "The cow apparently died two days ago and it was learned
that some of its body parts were missing, apparently its eyes and udders,"
reported police and judicial sources to EL LIBERAL.
-
- These spokesmen maintained that the event deserves the
attention of officialdom since the initial inspections suggest that the
animals death has been surrounded by "confusing circumstances".
"There appears to be no putrefaction and while carrion birds presumably
approached the animal, they did not touch it," added the sources.
-
- Meanwhile, police from Precinct 38 of Garza maintained
in its report to authorities in the capital that no tire tracks or footsteps
were found near the animal, nor anything that could suggest the presence
of cattle rustlers.
-
- At the close of this edition, sources said that "taking
these development into consideration, and in order to make the corresponding
technical verifications, " Fifth Circuit Criminal Court Justice Dr.
Jose Antonio UÒates will head out to the site in question. He will
be accompanied by the chief of police, Sheriff Jose Tomas Lescano, and
the veterinarian from the K-9 division, Eduardo Betbeder, chemical specialist
of the Narcotics Unit, Roberto Adamo and personnel from the Institute
of Bromatology of the province. Judge UÒates also requested the
attendance of the presdient of the School of Veterinary Medicine of Santiago
del Estero and Dr. Andres Miotti, a local UFO researcher.

- Wave Of UFO Sightings
-
- Residents of the Santa Rosa de Lima neighborhood in the
city's northern end contacted EL LIBERAL yesteday to inform that they
have been witnessing for the past several nights--in concatenation with
the sightings at Fernandez and Ojo de Agua--objects with strange lights
in the direction of La Venacha, to the northeast of Santiago. The wave
of rumors and UFO sightings are directly related to the appearance of
mutilated animals and there are already specialists who point to the presence
of "extraterrestrials" as the parties responsible for these
acts. In spite of the proximity of the city's airport , residents of
the western sector of the city do not relate the strange lights with planes
or helicopters which may be coming in for a landing, because "they
remain motionless for several minutes in the air, or go up and down in
a straight line before vanishing unexpectedly."
-
- EL LIBERAL combed the neighborhood to collect accounts
and although residents did not wish to make their names known, they verified
the presence of these lights "over several evenings." Jose Villalva,
the owner of a local supermarket, stated that his customers are remarking
on the presence of these lights in the sky while doing their groceries,
while stating that he himself has not seen them.
-
- A young man disclosed that a few weeks ago, at night,
a group of police officers went into the wilderness behind the neighborhood
to capture criminals and that the locals, whose curiosity had driven them
to enter the area, saw several lights over the treetops that ascended and
descended. They thought at first that the lights came from the policemens'
flashlights, but they discarded the possibility immediately upon realizing
the officers had gone and they were alone in the area. Since then, many
people have returned to the site in the hopes of seeing what they call
"UFOs".

- A UFO Costs Residents Of Fernandez Robles Their Sleep
-
- FERNANDEZ ROBLES (C) -- EL LIBERAL's exclusive related
to the appearance of a UFO in this city between June 11-14 at different
nocturnal hours regained strength yesterday due to a new sighting last
Thursday around 21:00 hours. Numerous residents of the following neighborhoods:
Norte, 12 de Octubre, Juan Domingo Peron, Camping, Roca and 102 Viviendas,
among others "the Capital of Agriculture", claim having seen
the luminous object.
-
- On said occasion, Marcelo Coronel, a profesisonal mechanic
living on Balcarse Street in Barrio Norte, witnessed--along with the light
of the moon and strars--something similar to a "headlight surrounded
by a red halo which increased and diminished in hue, and moved slowly
from north to south without making any sound." Coronel adds that
since he was on his way to the Sportivo Club, he followed [the object]
in his car "along old Route 34." Once he reached the stadium,
he continued to witness it along with the Gallardo family "for over
20 minutes, until it became lost behind the treeline."
-
- He further added that the event took place after 9:00
pm last Thursday. "On that day--he said--the wind was blowing northward,
and for that reason I know the object wasn't a balloon. It moved opposite
to the prevailing wind. Very slowly, as round as the size of a car wheel.
It was possible to make out its colors clearly: intense white at its core
(like a headlight) whith a red aura around it, changing shades of red."
Numerous residents of Fernandez claim having seen the phenomenon. A
considerable number of rumors link this fact with the wave of unexplained
bovine deaths and the emptying of numerous farm water tanks all over the
country. "It is noteworthy that these lights should move over areas
in which the wells and tanks of the new potable water system are located,"
adds Coronel.
-
- Neighbors agree, pointing out that when they are seen,
TV signals are interrupted or television sets shut themselves off without
any interruption to the flow of electricity, or the sets change channels
without the remote control having been touched, while dogs bark desperately
without any apparent reason.
