North of England becomes 'the world's top hotspot for UFO sightings'

London, Nov 9 (ANI): The North of England has been crowned the world's top hotspot for UFO sightings last night.

"At the moment the North of England seems to be having more than its fair share," the Sun quoted ex-MoD UFO expert Nick Pope as saying.

"Arizona has been famous for lots of sightings but it seems the North is now overtaking it," he said.

UFOs have been snapped in Rotherham, South Yorks, and Harrogate, North Yorks, in the past three weeks. The latest footage sent in by Paul Sinclair was shot in Osgodby, near Scarborough, North Yorks, on Sunday evening.

"It really looks like a flying saucer. Crowds of people saw it. There's definitely something happening here," Sinclair said.

"My son-in-law filmed it for several minutes. There appeared to be two objects, one with a hooked tail, the other disc-shaped," he added.

Expert Nick said: "It's pretty spooky. At first glance it appears to be a cloud - then it seems to be bombing along purposefully."

Last year a formation of 50 UFOs was seen above Scarborough. (ANI)
