Another sighting in UFO mystery
Shropshire Star (United Kingdom)
February 22, 2005

Mystery surrounds the origin of a bright light seen streaking through
the Shropshire skies at the weekend after two late night cinema-goers
claim to have spotted the phenomena 10 hours earlier.

Several county residents reported the light at about 10am on Sunday,
with many believing they had seen a meteorite.

But Rachael Jones, of Harlescott, and Bryony Morgan, of Castlefields,
cast further intrigue into the sighting after they saw the object as
they left Cineworld, in Old Potts Way, at 12.30am on Sunday.

Miss Jones said: "It was a sort of yellowy-white colour and then tailed
off to nowhere, it went across the sky and then disappeared. We didn't
know what it was, but it was weird."

But motorist Richard Gorton today stuck with original reports, saying he
had seen the blazing trail from Craven Arms at 10.15am on Sunday.
