An intriguing report details the case of a police officer who encountered something unusual in the sky over Canada.
According to a report filed with the Civil Aviation Daily Occurrence Reporting System (CADORS), the incident occurred on April 24th, 2011 in the vicinity of Selkirk, Manitoba.
The witness was a Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) officer who had been driving in his cruiser when he spotted something moving across the night sky just up ahead.
"Selkirk RCMP reported an unidentified bright yellow and orange light travelling west to east just north of Selkirk Manitoba on April 24th at 2:15 am local," the report states.
"They also advised that they have a video recording of the object."
"A Nav Canada review of radar data indicates a Perimeter Metro aircraft crossed approximately 8 miles northwest at the time of the report, climbing to 17,000 feet."
"RCMP advised they are familiar with the Metro aircraft and stated this was not an aircraft. A CIRVIS report was filed with NORAD."
The video footage, which was acquired at the time by Canadian ufologist Chris Rutkowski, has since been obtained by Motherboard and has been posted on YouTube.
It shows a bright light moving across the sky from left to right across the frame in the early hours of the morning.
I guess im not outside enough at night anymore but as a kid i saw several of these kind of things that might pass as an aircraft for minute but then they do odd turns and blink differently or disappear. Maybe what we need to get an idea of what they are is better camera technology. Like the ability to quickly zoom in very close without the hinderance of darkness. I wouldn't consider this a ufo encounter though more of a sighting of a light.
it begs the question: any other reports of this amazing event? Â If not then so much for the good ole professional observer who don't know what a plane or helicopter looks like.. Or at least consider this a likely conclusion before reporting it as unidentified! Really, is this a joke?
