UFO sighting over Gran Canaria

Hi
Particularly interested in this report due to family members being there at the time!

An unidentified flying object was reported to have hovered over southern Gran Canaria early on the morning of March 14 and was seen by dozens of people on their drive to work.

Traffic is said to have slowed down and some vehicles even pulled over as drivers tried to get a better look at the phenomenon.

One eye witness told local daily Canarias 7: “It was something very large, circular, with lights all round it and from below it gave out a great downward beam of light.”

The woman, who preferred not to be named, said the UFO hovered stationary for some time over the El Águila barranco in San Bartolomé de Tirajana.

She added that the beam lit up one side of the ravine.

A spokesman for the military air base at Gando said none of their planes had been in the area at the time.
