Tornado Prevents a UFO From Landing

A Lancashire man claims a tornado prevented a UFO from landing near where he stood.

Pat Regan claims he was nearly blown off his feet in Rufford as he photographed the tornado during a fishing trip.

When he got home he enlarged the picture on his computer and spotted the UFO.

Pat told The Sun: "I noticed this weird speck. I blew it up and there it was - a UFO hovering right beside the twister.

"It's a perfect disc shape and greenish in colour. If it was a little green man he probably took one look at the weather and thought twice about landing!"

A Met Office spokesman said: "Tornados occur about 30 times a year in the UK, but it's the first time I've heard of a UFO spotted close to one."
