Flying Saucer Seen By Osoyoos Couple

OSOYOOS – A flying saucer has been seen by Osoyoos residents.

A well-known local couple, Mr. and Mrs. Cecil G. LePoidevin of the Lepoidevin Greenhouses, were relaxing on the lawn at their home across the lake when the object was first sighted by Mrs. LePoldevin,

Almost at the same time Mr. LePoidevin noted it too.

It was a round disc which had the shiny appearance of aluminum or glass. There was no wind and the object glided by noiselessly at a height of about 2000 feet. It is estimated the object was travelling about 500 miles per hour.

The couple saw this mysterious object at 6.40 Friday evening, and its rapid progress quickly took it out of sight, proceeding in a direct north to south path.
