Oval UFO and small 'creature' reported by California man

A California man reports seeing an oval-shaped UFO and a one to two-foot-tall creature on his property September 30, 2009, according to witness testimony from the Mutual UFO Network (MUFON) database.

The oval-shaped craft was seen about 3 p.m. after the man reported seeing a reflection of the object off of a camper shell window.

At 9:50 p.m., the man said he went outside to feed his cat and saw "something flashing colorful lights" just off his porch steps that was no bigger than a baseball.

The man took two steps toward the object and realized it was being held by "something" that stood no more than one or two feet tall.

Both the man and the "creature" were startled and moved away from each other.

The witness claims he heard the object hit the ground, but when he went back to the area to look for it, nothing was there.

The following is the unedited witness statement from MUFON. Please keep in mind that most UFO reports can be explained as something natural or manmade. If MUFON investigates and reports back on this case, I will update this page

CA. September 30, 2009 - Oval craft scared my cat / Strange blinking lights in my yard later that night. MUFON Case # 19797.

Around 3:00pm I was watching my cat sitting in the yard from inside my house, looking out a sliding glass door. He was looking out into a field and then looked straight up. His ears went flat and his eyes were big and he ducked down and quickly ran to a tree to climb but stopped halfway looking up all around.

At that moment a saw a reflection of a black oval (off of a camper shell window in the driveway) moving away to the left. I have tall trees all around the house but only the sky can be seen in the reflection.

I went and picked up the cat and he was trembling and shaking.

Later that night at exactly 9:50 I went outside to feed the cat, as I stepped out of the door I saw something flashing colorful lights just off the porch steps in the yard no bigger than a baseball. It was very dark and I took 2 steps towards it and noticed that it was being held by "something" about 1 to 2 feet tall.

I was startled and jumped back and at the same time the "thing" was startled too and dropped the flashy thing and ran away super fast. I looked where "it" dropped the flashy light thing cause it was right in front of my pumpkin patch. I heard it hit the ground and later believe it bent a pumpkin leaf stem. Nothing there. I was terrified by then and went inside to collect my self.

    It's a pity there isn't a description of the 'person'.To me it sounds like another alien-type thing that isn't an alien, rather like the Unicoi Park, Georgia 'aliens' which more or less ignored the witness.
    Was this one of those people known as 'Littlefeet', who used to live all over America, and maybe still do? Again no ship, no telepathy or lost time or abduction attempt - none of the usual ET hallmarks.No explanation for the glowing light gizmo but the being didn't zap the witness with it - he dropped it and ran, very un-alien behaviour !

    Garbage, complete garbage. Another one of those "Oh! I saw something, don't really know what it was, but it ran off." Of course there's absolutely no evidence, even though he had time to make a 'You Tube' video.

    A good researcher listens and makes no judgment initially. The story is not uncommon and has elements of believability. Can't be sure of exaggeration, but likely understated instead. Need more story detail. The man seems to be concerned. That is consistent with high strangeness experienced events.

    The guy sounds sincere, but unfortunately that isn't enough to make any kind of decision.
    If I see a 'lil dude on my porch, but fail to get a pic, I'll still announce to everyone I saw it just like he did.
    Interesting story, but that's all it is :)

    Cool story! Might be worth investing in surveillance camera; it would lower the homeowners insurance rates and may even catch the next lil' alien bugger on video.

    I hope it's true because it would stop (maybe) all these nay sayers. Hey they can drop by my house anytime they want to. I am looking forward to the time they come out. I know they would be snapped up by the Gov's troups and They would be sliced and diced and I totally understand them being cautious.power on!

    Sounds like a classic goblin story. And Halloween is coming up. A pumpkin patch? A cat? hmm. Even if it's true these things aint good. Sounds like 'they' have already got hold of one of the folks on this comments list, doesn't it?
