FEBRUARY 2009 – SWANSEA

On a Friday night in February (but could be March) between 7 and 9.30 PM. On duty uniformed police officer ‘D’ was on foot patrol near Swansea Museum, at the end of York Street, on the central reservation of Victoria Road.

Looking north-east, he observed a lot of Chinese lanterns drifting in a south-westerly direction, and one object, a red ball, slightly above them, moving in the opposite direction, at a gently pace.

Just then on his radio, he heard another police officer, an acting sergeant, who was on front patrol on North Hill, to the north of the city centre, asking him if he could see “a red ball.”

There was no sound heard. The object continued in a north-easterly direction in a straight line, faster than walking pace until it was out of sight.
