Armed with assault rifles, a corporal and several soldiers drove up in a jeep to the spot where the UFO was apparently about to land, emitting multicolored flashes and sounding humming.

He sat down, and three creatures larger than six feet (1.8 m) in silvery form came out of it and slowly, in unsteady steps moved towards the soldiers. The corporal shot them in a line with an assault rifle, after which the creatures raised their hands, showing a small glowing ball, after which all witnesses were gripped by strange fatigue and were unable to use their weapons.

However, one of the men, Corporal Menendez, managed to fire five shots without any apparent impact on the humanoids.

It was only after the pieces re-entered the UFO and it took off in a zigzag motion that the soldiers regained their abilities
