The astonishing UFO claim follows reports of an unidentified flying object appearing over the State of Trujillo, Venezuela. The supposed UFO is believed to have first been observed on February 16 this year by local resident Friman Rodriguez. Mr Rodriguez described a bright orange light dashing across the sky in a zig-zag pattern in the afternoon hours. According to the blog Inexplicata – The Journal of Hispanic UFOlogy, the UFO’s arrival coincided with a local power blackout.
Mr Waring has bizarrely claimed the UFO is of a kind belonging to a “godlike” species of extraterrestrials.
He said: “This type of UFO has been seen in South America several times.
“When close to the craft it will appear as a bright orange light, too bright to make out any detail, but if it’s high enough in the sky it can easily be mistaken as the Sun during a sunset.
“This particular craft is flown by an alien species that is almost godlike.
According to the UFO expert, the aliens come to interact with and teach humans.
However, he noted Mr Rodriguez and his cousin were “too frightened” for the aliens to properly approach them.
In the initial UFO report, the alleged spaceship appeared over La Puerta in the Municipality of Valera.
Mr Rodriguez was quoted saying: “I didn’t pay much attention at first, thinking it was a reflection of the Sun, but suddenly I realised that the Sun was to the left, and much farther below.”
