Triangle over Spalding (UK/England) · United Kingdom
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
i was standing in my back garden smoking a cigarette when a red triangular shape appeared out of nowhere in the sky... it was dead still for a few seconds and before i knew it, it had shot to one side of the sky to the other turning a portion of the crystal clear sky behind it red.. i grabbed my phone as quick as i could to get a video and as soon as i touched my phone it burnt me... when i went to reach for my phone a second time, the shape had disappeared and my phone was compeletely cracked from top to bottom. What scares me the most is for a brief moment i heard something/someone say, "Leave this one, he carries no faith".... i felt extremely ill for 5 minutes with a terrible headache.. not going to lie its completely freaked me out. I am just a normal guy with a normal job leading a normal life.. i have never had any experience like this whatsoever and to be honest im a sceptic when it comes to these things. But frankly its frightened me that much i need to know if this has happened before.. to anyone around the world. Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. Possible hoax?? PD

What would the paper say?
UK sighting reports were handled by the MoD's UFO desk until 2009; later records answer to the Freedom of Information Act 2000, earlier files sit at the National Archives. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
