Brief summary of the event and follow-up:
A UFO newspaper clipping bulletin apparently indicated that in Mar Del Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina, on August 2, 1980, late in the night, a man was returning home when a bright light appeared in front of him.
As he approached he saw that it was "some type of object."
A short human-like figure emerged, wearing a shiny suit and with "flat ears." He looked at the witness, pointed a strong beam of light at him, and the witness then found himself captive inside some type of crystal sphere.

Was near UFO, captured witness inside UFO with beam of light.
Albert Rosales indicates in his catalogue that Mar Del Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina, on August 2, 1980, late in the night, a man was returning home when a bright light appeared in front of him, as he approached he could see that it was some type of object. A short human like figure emerged; he wore a shiny suit and appeared to have "flat ears." He looked at the witness and pointed a strong beam of light at him, the witness then found himself being held captive inside some type of crystal sphere. He remained there for several minutes while being observed by the humanoid.
Rosales indicates that the source is UFONS #134.
Points to consider:
UFONS is a 55$ per year 20-page monthly publication based in Arizona, USA, which consists of reprinted newspaper UFOs and strange phenomena stories from all parts of the world. This means that the story originates from some newspaper and was very probably never investigated or verified.
