RESIDENTS OF FORMOSA CLAIM HAVING SEEN "LIGHT"

[note: first paragraph is missing]

Finally, Luis Fernandez retold the story of something that had captured his attention. In those locations, late at night, "I saw lights on the horizon in the places where the mutilations occurred. The light looks like a large flashlight that points down from above. We thought they were helicopters belonging to some agency touring the area. We went to look and couldn't hear or find anything. The lights look like someone's lighting something below from above, like a spotlight with an intense white light."

"That always happens around these parts., but we pay it no mind, otherwise one runs the risk of being called fanciful or a liar. We pay it no mind. But we will try to find what is really happening in those places. Some ten boys survey and comb the area with me. Someday we'll find something," he said.

We checked with one of the persons who cross the area on a regular basis and they corroborated Fernandez's testimony. "It's true. We always see things like immense flashlights in this area which point downward from above, as though looking for something, but we never discuss is for fear of being taken for madmen or liars. This has to happen to you to understand it. Like my compadre, who would always laugh when I told him that at the edge of the Salado Creek certain shining things would appear out of the sky, turning the night into day. We went fishing one night and what he didn't believe in unexpectedly happened. The light appeared above and lit up the area like daylight. We told [others] what had happened but no one believed us. Therefore it's not worth retelling it."

We also spoke to some residents at the "Feklo" store who were talking excitedly about the "burned cows". They told us: "It's true, from here we saw giant lights land in the area several times. Then they rise quickly to become lost in swift movement. At high speed. No one believes us, but its true. It doesn't happen very often, but it happens after a rain shower or storm, and on cold nights, and always in the area where Don Luis found his dead animals. Maybe someday someone will be able to take a photo [of them] or see what they really are. They aren't helicopters or anything we know. Of one thing we're sure - Luis Fernandez won't leave them alone. He'll watch them night and day until he has the chance to see what's happening to his cows."
