A mysterious character who called himself "John Cooper" and a claim to British citizenship, arrived in Puebla in the summer of 1944.

He claimed that he was the 21st "OPTICOM", who worked on a research project and wanted complete privacy during your long stay. He apparently worked on the development of new methods of photography. For 7 years he was rarely seen in the city. It is sometimes seen at a local Bank where he kept the Deposit of $ 78,000 (a very large sum at the time), and sometimes saw him at a local University.

Once he has arrived at the local grocery store, bought a certain amount of canned food and told the owner that his "servant" by the name of Antonio (of unknown origin) left the Villa three days ago and hasn't come back.

Two months later, the owner began to worry as the copper has not paid the rent and not called or visited him to give any explanation. He decided to pay a visit to the Copper to see if there are any problems.

After two hours of knocking on the door, he was convinced that there was something wrong, and decided to call the local police. Once in the residence, the police and the owner confirmed that the copper was gone. The residence is a mess, and lost all his optical equipment and paper. Searching his room, they were surprised that most of his personal belongings are still intact, but every drawer and cupboard seems to have been thoroughly searched.

The police immediately contacted the British Consulate, since the copper claimed he is a British citizen but the Consulate denied any data on Copper and did not have the records of his visits or location.

Some strange items were noted by the investigators: the garden Villa was completely destroyed, as if passed through a "heavy machine or equipment", the trees were broken in half, broken fences and flattened large areas of grass.

The neighbor, Mr. Rosario Derode, claimed to have seen some sort of glowing comet descended through the Villa in the night of 8 April.

Whoever John copper, it was never seen or heard.

Original news

A mysterious character that called himself “John Copper” and claimed to be of British nationality arrived in Puebla in the summer of 1944. He claimed he was an 21 “optician” working on a research project and wanted complete privacy during his extended stay. He was apparently working on developing new methods in the development of photography. During his 7 years there he was rarely seen in town, he was seen at times at the local bank where he kept a deposit of 78,000$ (a very large sum at the time) and at times he was seen visiting the local University. One day he arrived at a local grocery and bought a certain amount of canned goods and explained to the proprietor that his “servant” a man name Antonio (of uncertain origin) had left the villa three days ago and had not yet returned. Two months later the owner of the villa became concerned as Copper had not paid the rent and had not called or visit to offer any explanations. He decided to pay Copper a visit to see if there was any problem. After 2 hours of knocking on the door he became convinced that something untoward had occurred and decided to call the local police. Once inside the residence the police and the owner confirmed that Copper was missing and the place in total disarray, besides Copper all his optical equipment was also gone and strangely every piece of paper was also missing. Searching his room they were surprised that most of his personal items were still intact, but every drawer and armoire appeared to have been thoroughly searched.
