A second | | occupant was seen through the windows inside the craft.

(Source: MUFON UFO Journal, April 1984). | | | | 1996 - On March 2nd at 6:30 a.m. police in Cuscatancingo, El Salvador | | found a 17-year-old boy wandering confused along the shore of | | Ilopango Lake. Under interrogation he related a bizarre story of | | being abducted around 10 p.m. on February 29th. During the night he | | had been walking towards his home during a local power black-out. | | Suddenly there was a bright flash of blue light behind him. Thinking | | that it was the police he turned around slowly. His next memory was | | of being inside a completely white room, where he could not | | distinguish any walls or furniture of any kind. He realized he was | | lying prone and unable to move, in some sort of bed. He noticed | | numerous "cables" that appeared to be connected to his chest area, | | and on his right arm he had attached what resembled an IV machine. He | | then saw several humanoids about 1.2 meters (four feet) in height. | | They had very large heads, huge eyes and in the forehead he could see | | what appeared to be another "protuberance" resembling a third eye. | | They also had sparse beards around the mouth and chin. In a state of | | confusion he noticed other humans in the room but could not tell if | | they were also prisoners. He remembered seeing a horrifying scene in | | which he saw several of the humanoids were operating on a woman, | | seemingly cutting her in half. Then they took the upper torso of the | | human female and somehow attached it to a "hump-like" area of a | | female humanoid that had been prepared on another bed. The humanoids | | wore white tunics which they had a strange insignia over the right | | breast. He was later taken to the shores of Lake Ilopango where the | | beings told him that their race "was in a state of war and could not | | reproduce in their original normal manner." He then had the sensation | | of falling towards the lake. This part was very confusing and could | | not be remembered in detail. Several unusual scars were found on the | | witness's body.

Lopez, Y Files). | | | | 2004 - At 9:00 p.m. in Brooklyn, Maryland an oval-shaped, very bright | | light came down into a backyard, very close to the house and | | residents. The close encounter reportedly lasted ten minutes. | | (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting Center, Feb. 2004 | | webpage). | | | | Written by Donald A.
