This article was originally written for a paranormal magazine called The Paranormal Journal, it became known as The Underground Files covering ghosts, ufos, cryptozoology, and government conspiracies amongst others. I no longer write for the magazine and it is no longer in existence.
The Brazilian
Incident
Brazil, 1996 – an
unidentified flying object was spotted on US radar, with no Brazilian
satellites, contact was made with their authorities and the information was
relayed.
The Brazilian Air Force was
scrambled, as many people on the ground witnessed a cigar shaped object
expelling large amounts of smoke hurtling towards the ground, while in other
parts of the town anomalous lights were reported seen.
The Brazilian Army and the
local fire service went to the scene of the crash in a co-ordinated operation.
However, on searching the
area a craft was not found, yet an EBE was and was wrapped in a camouflage net
before being put into the back of a Brazilian Army truck by soldiers.
On the same day, three girls
saw a creature that they described like this: Brown, soft skin (like a heart),
large red bulging eyes, and visible veins.
They ran home and told their
mother, who more concerned for the welfare of her daughters – went in search of
what they described… She found a foot print with a round palm and two long
straight, forward facing toes.
The Brazilian Army moved the
Extraterrestrial Being to the hospital. It was hot and there were many towns’
folk on the streets witnessing the military operation.
The press were on to the
story but were refused any coverage of the incident by the Army, those that
stuck around with the much sort after tenacity of good journalists got scared
off by soldiers.
There was no identification
of the creature from the hospital or the Army. However, some of the Brazilian
Army that had held the creature as it was loaded on to the back of the truck did
give their view to UFO researchers at risk of losing their jobs.
After the event, a woman
attending a party at the local zoo saw a similar creature as the girls had
described, Dr. Leila Cabral, a member of the zoo staff reported anomalous
problems and five unexpected deaths of animals with inconclusive post
mortems.
