The truck driver, 47-year-old Nestor Urruti, was driving over a bridge in Olavarria in thick fog when he saw something "like a giant oyster" emitting a blinding light.

It opened, and he found himself and his truck inside in the dark. As his eyes adjusted, he saw a glowing horseshoe-shaped dashboard 9-12 feet (2.7-3.6 m) long with dials and glowing figures. 

He felt a barrel with several wires put on his head and heard "a lot of things that I don't want to talk about because I don't want anything to happen to my wife and children." 

Finally, he arrived at his trucking Agency "with a severe nervous breakdown." After that, he experienced strange sensations between 03:00 and 03:15, feeling like someone else and waking up with sharp pains in the lower back and neck. He received psychiatric treatment at Olavarria hospital.
