Northern Ireland has become a UFO hotspot, according to police files. The Daily Star reports that experts say it has an “amazing” number of sightings for a population of less than two million people.
Around 24 incidents were dealt with by the Police Service of Northern Ireland between 2016 and 2022. The sightings included a “metallic spinning disc” and three spaceships.
In January 2021, there was a report of a spaceship and flashing lights in the Downpatrick area, while in May that year police had reports of white lights in Maghaberry and an odd disc in the sky over Slemish Mountain, Co Antrim. In July “strange images” on CCTV at a house in Newtownabbey were reported, along with a dome-shaped object bearing eight lights in the sky in the Saintfield area between Belfast and Downpatrick.
