- `UFO SEEN' ON NIGHT OF GREEN GLOW 09/02/96
- -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Soure: Loughborough Echo
- Date: February 9, 1996
-
- AN UNIDENTIFIED, oval craft was seen in the sky on the same night that
- Loughborough was lit up by a baffling, emerald glow.
-
- And a witness has described the strange craft as giving off a vivid green
- light!
-
- News of the sighting has reached the Echo from Joyce Tomblin, of Willoughby on
- the Wolds.
-
- An amazed Mrs Tomblin described what she saw from the window of her Main Street
- hime as `a brightly illuminated green oval shape with white, flashing lights on
- its underside.'
-
- Even stranger is the fact that her sighting took place on the same night
- (January 8) that scores of Echo readers reported a ghostly green glow in the
- sky over Loughborough.
-
- Mrs Tomblin added: "When I saw it, it was travelling quite quickly in a
- northerly direction.
-
- "It was spectacular to watch as it was giving off a translucent, bright green
- light. It looked like an air balloon or and airship.
-
- "I have not seen anything like it before or since, unfortunately, I did not
- have my camera to hand or I would have taken a picture of it."
-
- Since reports first emerged of the mysterious emerald glow, the Echo has been
- inundated with theories for the strange phenomenon.
-
- But, so far, none of them has proved to be watertight.
-
- But, if you saw an object resembling an airship on the night in question - or
- giving off a coloured glow at any other time - please contact Jo Headley at the
- Echo, tel (01509) 232632
