Shag Harbour UFO Incident




On 4 October 1967 , around 11:00 p.m., Laurie Wickens and four of his friends roll through the small town of Shag Harbour ( Nova Scotia , Canada ) on Route 3. Suddenly, a large object (about twenty feet in diameter according to witnesses) across the sky before them.
Various witnesses describe an object shaped "bowl" of color " amber ", with four flashing lights in sequence and following a downward path of about 45 °. Quickly be stopped in the harbor, where it crashed, producing a "flash" of light, and a large explosion sound. Patrolling on Route No. 3 at the same time, the agent of police Ron Pond is also witnessed the same events.
Thinking initially that it was a plane crash, Laurie Wickens immediately contact the detachment of mounted police royal Barrington and explains the facts to the officer Werbicki. The latter decided to go to the scene of the accident with Officer Ron O'Brien and Ron Pond contacted the agent for it to do the same.
Once the crash site, the three police officers perceive, 800 meters from the shore, a floating object just above the water and emitting a yellow light. A ship of Coast Guard Port of Clark and several fishing boats were immediately dispatched to the scene but when they arrive at the location of the crash, the subject has already sunk, leaving only a layer of yellow foam , about 35 meters and 900 producing an odor similar to that of sulfur . The research will extend until 3 am to resume at dawn the next day, but without results.
On October 8 , seven divers from HMCS Granby inspect the area all day but found no trace or debris that may explain the origin of the crash. The research was definitively abandoned on 9 October 1967 . Since then, the case is part of the folklore and has become a local source of tourism revenue (the post has even published a local stamp depicting a crash of UFO ).
