A woman claims she saw UFOs hovering over Ashford before they dropped laser-like shafts to earth.
Jade Anthony, 29, said she witnessed the unidentified flying objects along with her friend Simon Lowe, 32, on Sunday night when they took a cigarette break in her garden.
After spotting strange lights at about 9.15pm in the sky above Singleton Lakes they watched what she described as an acrobatic display straight from the realms of science fiction. There was no noise from the craft that looked like flaming Chinese lanterns.
Roy Lake, founder and chairman of the London-based UFO studies group, is supporting their sighting and dismisses thoughts they might just have vivid imaginations.
He said: “There has been a big build-up of similar sightings of Chinese lantern-type craft across the country and I would appeal for anyone that may have seen anything to make it public.
Ashford police spokesman Rosy Alexander said they had no record of anything unusual in the skies above the area to investigate.
