-
- A MONSTER UFO reported by several people in north west Scotland at the weekend
- may have escaped from Lock Ness.
-
- Police at Allapool who gave chase but failed to catch up with the large
- shimmering object in the sky admitted they were baffled.
-
- First reports of a low-flying object moving slowly across the night sky and
- giving off a blue and white light were logged by police on Saturday night.
-
- Several people called to say it could be clearly seen over the Scoraig
- peninsula and heading in a south westerly direction. "That was a fully
- corroborated sighting which was reported by several people independently," said
- PC Sheila Slaughter. "The witnesses were sensible people and very reliable."
-
- She and a colleague set off in pursuit of the UFO but it vanished.
-
- Coastguards keeping a look-out for the UFO said it may be a promotion blimp
- that broke loose from a party to celebrate the world premiere of the film Lock
- Ness.
-
- A spokesman said, "We understand that there was a light show at Aldourie Castle
- and that a large balloon or blimp may have been anchored there at one point. No
- one seem it there last night. We suspect it may have got loose."
