The strange luminous object - of large proportions and looking like a flying saucer - was also was seen, anteontem to the afternoon, by the state road policeman Edson Pereira, who is in duty in Monte Aprasível. And what he told corresponds to the story told by Adimar Pablo Senaguedes and Antonio Tridico (Jaboran), of Rio Preto Television.
According to the road policeman, he returned to Rio Preto at the end of the afternoon at 06:00 p.m. and sighted a strange object flying over the region emitting a strong silver-plated light on its contours as it is said from what is called "flying saucers." The device preformed very fast maneuvers and disappeared, taking the direction of Mirassol.
"It could not have been an airplane, or an helicopter. The light was very strong, even strange. I never saw anything like this before" stated the road policeman. He went to the Mirassol airport and inquired if some device had gone down and the answer was: "No airplane landed here."
Yesterday, when reading the story of the employees of Black River TV, the road policeman declared: "the details coincide."
As it is remembered, Adimar and Jaboran saw the strange luminous object when they returned from Barreros and when they were at 40 kilometers of distance São José do Rio Preto when they saw a strange light evolving in our skies, at an incredible speed.
O estranho objeto luminoso - de grandes proporções e assemelhando se a um disco voador - também foi visto, anteontem à tarde, pelo policial rodoviário estadual Edson Pereira, que exerce suas funções em Monte Aprasível. E o que ele narrou corresponde ao relato feito por Adimar Paulo Senaguedes e Antonio Tridico (Jaboran), da Televisão Rio Preto.
Segundo o policial rodoviário, ele retornava a Rio Preto por volta das 18.10 horas de anteontem e percebeu un estranho objeto sobrevoando a região e emitia uma forte luz prateada e seus contornos pare iam com os chamados "disco voadores". O aparelho fazia evoluções muito rapidas e desapareceu, tomando o rumo de Mirassol.
"Não podia ser avião, helicópterio. A luz era muito forto, estranha ,es,o. Jamais vi coisa igual" afirmou o policial rodoviário. Elle foi ao aeroporto de Mirassol e indagou se algum aparelho havia descido e a respoto foi: "Nenhum avião pouseu aqui."
Ontem, ao ler o relato dos funcionários da Tevé Rio Preto, o policial rodoviário declarou: "Os detalhes coincidem."
Como se recorda, Adimar e Jaboran viram o estranho objeto luminoso quando retornavam de Barreros e estavam a uns 40 km de São José do Rio Preto quando viram a estranha luz fazendo evoluçõ es no céeu, desenvolvendo celocidada incrivel.
