ALIENS CAPTURED IN BRAZIL? FIRST DETAILED ACCOUNT

[May 23, 1996 -- The May 16 edition of ISCNI*Flash carried a brief mention of rumors concerning the possible capture of one or more alien beings in Brazil. Now we have learned that the story has made major headlines in that nation. The description given of the alleged aliens is oddly similar to descriptions of the so-called Chupacabras, whose activities have been often reported in the Flash. So far, however, we are not aware of any claim directly linking the Brazilian events with the Chupacabras. Thanks to James Sutton for forwarding this item, received from a woman named Regina (reginag@originet.com.br) and compiled from Brazilian news sources.]

The [alleged] incident involving the capture of an ET in Varginha, a small town in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, is being considered the most impressive example of immediate contact with aliens here in Brazil. The story made headlines in all Brazilian newspapers, magazines and TV programs. Here are the details:

On January 20, three girls were walking across a vacant lot on their way home. It was a bright sunny afternoon. All of a sudden one of the adolescents (16 years old) looked left and screamed. A strange creature was squatting by a wall with its long arms between its legs; it had shiny, slippery skin and what looked like three short horns on its head.

"But what I noticed first of all were his eyes, huge and red," says the girl who saw it first. She was so frightened she turned to run but her sister and her friend couldn't move from sheer terror and just stared.

"It was the most horrible sight I've ever seen," said one of the girls later on. "It didn't look like anything I've ever seen. It was neither an animal nor a human being," said one of the girls who is married and has three children. "The creature seemed afraid and only made a slight movement with the head. We ran like hell," she said.

Apparently, the day before, an elderly couple living on a small farm a couple of kilometers from Varginha woke up to the noise made by the cattle. They went out of the house to see a UFO over the front yard, about 5 meters from the ground.

Ufologists have been to Varginha and concluded that this apparition was not only authentic but also the most extraordinary contact ever registered in Brazil. Professor John Mack, Ph.D., from Harvard came to Varginha with the specific purpose of talking to the women who had seen the alien. Ten organizations which study UFOs have signed a document testifying the seriousness of the incident.

The complete story seems to indicate that the ET seen by the girls in broad daylight was the second one to be captured; the first one was spotted 5 hours before, at 10:30 a.m., precisely, in a wood about three blocks from the place the girls are said to have seen it . This first creature was said to be captured by the fire brigade. In an article written for one of the most respected magazines in Brazil, the reporter wrote that this first ET was captured by the firemen, put inside a wooden box in an army truck and taken to an army camp a few kilometers from Varginha.

The day after, some people report having seen unusual movement in front of the local hospital (where supposedly, the girls' ET was taken) before being again removed -- this time already dead -- to Campinas, a big city in the state of Sao Paulo. Army officers who were accused of conspiracy to hide the whole episode from the public, strongly denied everything. However, the Ufologists who were in Varginha claim to have a recorded statement given by somebody from the army who was directly involved in the rescue operation. This person, according to the specialists, said that when the ET was removed from Varginha to Campinas, the body was already smelling pretty bad.
