Video footage of bright
white triangles flying over Surrey has drawn a California -based
television crew here.
Green Timbers resident
Bill Oliver, and about a dozen neighbours have seen the UFO
zig-zagging high above their neighbourhood several times since
early May. One neighbour reportedly saw the object again last
Friday.
Oliver, a Vancouver
school board employee, has seen it about four times himself. He's
even videotaped the object as it pulsates, zooms around a bit
then appears to fly behind a tree.
The video attracted the
attention of Sightings, an American program
which explores the paranormal. Oliver and his neighbours were
interviewed by the program Sunday, and are expected to appear on
the prime-time program in October.
"I just basically said I
don't know what it is", Oliver said he told the Sightings
crew. "They (the crew ) were really laid
back."
This isn't the first
time Surrey UFO sightings have drawn attention from across the
border. Last summer, a Fox network film crew came from Los
Angeles to interview local residents for an episode of Encounters,
another program exploring the paranormal.
More than 40 UFO
sightings have been reported in this area over the past two
decades, resulting in the area being dubbed the Surrey-Delta
Corridor.
Most sightings occurred
in the area bounded by Scott Road to the west, King George
Highway to the east, Mud Bay to the south and the Fraser River to
the north.
