Villagers have claimed they witnessed a UFO landing and multiple mini aliens running around before one of them died in the street.
Locals claim to have taken images of what they say was a deceased extraterrestrial lying in the gutter before it mysteriously disappeared.
It remains unclear whether a sneaky opportunist removed what they believed was an alien corpse.
The mysterious encounter was reported in the rural village of Huarina, in the La Paz area of Bolivia.
Two nights before the reportedly dead alien was found in the gutter, residents filmed an eerie green light in the night sky that they believed was an alien spacecraft.
They claim they then witnessed numerous figures running around the dark streets.
Villagers described the mysterious beings as very small and compared them to goblins.
Local resident Rita Marquez told reporters: "They were miniature beings, like those little people who appear to children."
UFO expert Juan Carlos Aliaga told local media: "They sent me photos of what it was. This being, curled up.
He added that the "residents know all about this" and said he would look into the matter.
The local authorities also got involved, asking villagers to not say too much about the alleged alien visit at this time.
According to reports, the regional tourism visitor visited the small town on a fact-finding mission and vowed that the authorities would carry out an investigation.
