UFOs reported over Suriname
PARAMARIBO, Suriname (AP) -- Dozens of people in the South
American country of Suriname have reported seeing an
unidentified flying object near its capital, police and
military officials said.
Police, military and air traffic control officials said
they received reports of a brightly lit white object that
appeared to fly back and forth, sometimes at great speed,
during a two-hour period Wednesday morning.
Local media also broadcast reports of the alleged sightings
on the southern outskirts of the capital, and most
television stations broadcast images of the object.
Surinamese Air Force Officer Tony Comvalius said there were
no planes in the area at the time and he confirmed with the
weather service that it was not a weather balloon. He said
he also saw the object.
"I don't know what it was but was definitely not a flying
object I know," Comvalius said.
Not everyone was convinced that the sighting was
mysterious.
"I do not believe in UFOs. I think this sighting had
something to do with some kind of scientific experiment,
nothing more," said Sran Herewood, a 60-year-old civil
servant.

UFO SPOTTED ABOVE PARAMARIBO
An unidentified flying object (UFO) was seen yesterday above great parts of
the capital city Paramaribo. The strange object was first seen around 10 am
flying acrosss the sky above the Flora neighborhood, where also the
Suriname air force base is located. Various witnesses say that they saw
something flying from one point of the sky to another with a very high
speed. Back and forth, back and forth. Later on, the same object was
spotted above the sky of Cupido-project, a neigborhood in west Paramaribo.
There also it showed the same behavior, moving with an enormous speed from
one end of the sky to a point near the sun. An hour later it disappeared.
