   SOUTH WALES ARGUS, NEWPORTN WALES   
   NOV. 7, 1989   
      
   Three north Gwent youngsters are convinced they have seen a UFO following a   
   close encounter at Cwmtillery.   
      
        Lee Holt, Carl Jones and Sidney McLoughlin, all of Cwmtillery, thought   
   their days on earth were numbered when a "flying saucer" homed in on them at   
        5:30pm last Thursday evening.  And even now they cannot think of a logical   
   explanation for what they saw.  "We were playing up at Cwmtillery Lake near an   
   old farmhouse when we saw a bright light coming down the hillside," said Lee,   
   who has drawn a picture of what he saw.   
      
        "It was really low in the sky, clipping the tops of the trees.  It circled   
   above our heads several times, then flew off really quickly.  "It was silver,   
   disc-shaped, with a domed top and luminous lights, about the size of a car, and   
   it made no noise.  "We were really scared.  I thought whatever it was was going   
   to take us away.   
      
        "A few minutes after it vanished their was a huge fireball which came down   
   near the farm." The youngsters rushed home to tell their parents and at first   
   Lee's mum Melinda was sceptical.   
      
        "I thought they had made it up, or that what they had seen was fireworks,   
   but then I realised they were absolutely terrified," said Mrs. Holt, of White   
   Horse Court, Cwmtillery.  Abertillery police, who have investigated the boys'   
   story, have been unable to offer any down-to-earth explanation.   
      
        "We have to take any incident like this seriously and whatever it was the   
   boys saw they were very scared bt it," said Inspector Brian Heal.
