Summary:  Ivar Manuel Melano was in his back terrace tending his plants and listening to the radio when suddenly a strange creature appeared in front of him, standing only a few feet away. Before he saw the creature he felt a very strong heat wave from an unknown source. He described the creature as about 1.40 meters in height, “dirty” in appearance. With a generally oval shaped body and head, it had two thin arm-like protrusions, two on each side, and two short thin legs. It did not have any noticeable eyes, and his face appeared to be covered with “acne”, the witness could see a barely noticeable mouth. The creature also had huge pointy ears and long strands of hair dangling down from each side of its head. The skin appeared to be brown in color or very tanned. He wore a tight-fitting brown diving suit with three large oval shaped buttons, which every once in a while emitted bright red flashes of light in different directions. Surprised the witness asked the strange creature what was he doing in his terrace, the creature answered, apparently in a strange language, which sounded like “Guru guru guru” to the witness, but he was somehow able to comprehend, “I am here to help you”. He asked the witness for two plants, preferably two pine saplings since according to the creature that species was predominant on earth. The witness agreed and gave the creature two of the saplings then he continued working on his plants. The creature then told the witness that he liked the planet earth mainly because of the “double life” that it possessed. The witness was not quite sure what the alien meant by double life, and the alien explained that we on earth had life under the water and in the air. The alien went on to say that humans possessed a perverse intelligence, not like the intelligence they possessed. That the humans thought out things too much, that always planned everything ahead, that was totally unnecessary where he was from. The alien then went on to say that he was from the planet “Mars”. That they did not have vegetation over there; he also mentioned that they did not sleep at night in Mars. (?). The witness was also told that the earth on Mars was very hot and lacked water. At one point the witness seemed to experienced a memory lapse and does not remember how the alien left, all of the sudden he was no longer there. Some dark stains were found on the terrace in the area where the alien stood. One of the pine saplings that the alien handled atrophied and did not grow normally; it grew in a sort of mutated manner. The witness still possesses the sapling, which he showed investigators.
