UFO spotted 'zooming over downs'
1:35am Thursday 3rd January 2008
Little green men may have been spotted once again in the skies above Sussex.
Michelle Huggett, 31, was left gobsmacked by the UFO she says she saw zooming across the Downs near Lancing.
The red and orange object was behaving unlike any conventional aircraft she had ever seen.
The mum of one, from Tower Road, Lancing, said: "I was walking through town when I spotted it. It was moving very fast east to west but then just suddenly stopping. There was absolutely no noise at all. It was spooky."
Mrs Huggett believes it may have been the same UFO that was spotted in Cornwall just before Christmas.
It is the latest in a series of sightings across the county.
In 2007, the Ministry of Defence revealed that 52 reports of UFOs were made in Sussex from 1998 to 2006.
