Three Italian tourists from Gorizia were traveling by car on a road near Pordenone (northern Italy), when their vehicle was flooded by very powerful rays of red light. The three tourists stopped the vehicle and got out. Stunned, they saw a strange object hovering a few meters above their heads. The craft was lens-shaped, dark in color, and emitted powerful red rays.
Terrified, the tourists hurriedly got into their cars and closed the doors. Ten minutes later, the red lights disappeared, the car engine started up again.
As they continued on their way, the tourists realized that they were near Udine, a town 90 kilometers east of Pordenone.
They then went to Professor Antonio Chiumiento, president of the center for UFO studies. He took them to the Pordenone Hospital where doctors diagnosed them as suffering from conjunctivitis, inflammation of the membranes covering the eye and vomiting.
