UFO's spotted in Swansea sky

Local news website, thisisswansea.co.uk has put out a message to all residents, asking whether they have seen anything unusual in the night sky.

The request for stories comes after two people e-mailed to report strange sightings of bright lights and strange shapes in the evening sky over South Wales. Alex Beynon from Neath Abbey in Swansea told the website: "We spotted a strange object high up in the sky. Bright lights seemed to stay stationary for a bit then move around slowly; next thing it totally disappeared into thin air � we could not believe what we were seeing!"

And he wasn't the only one to question his vision after another man from Killay reported seeing "what looked like a shooting star. It shot across the sky and then split into three and vanished." Perhaps it was just a shooting star but it certainly got these two Welshmen talking and it's not the first time UFOs have been sighted over the Swansea Bay.

In 2003, a man called Richard Thomas reported seeing an object "moving up diagonally right and then down diagonally left over and over again in the sky" as he stopped at traffic lights on Mumbles Road in Swansea. Looks like South Wales is turning into a bit of a UFO hotspot!
