Ufohavainto Walesissa 7.6.2008
A police helicopter crew gave chase to a UFO after it almost collided with their aircraft near a military base.
The pilot was forced to bank sharply to avoid being hit by the mystery aircraft as the helicopter was returning to the Ministry of Defence base of St Athan, near Cardiff.
The three crew, who described the UFO as 'flying saucer-shaped', then gave chase, getting as far as the North Devon coast before they ran low on fuel, it was reported.
The police aircraft was hovering at 500ft and waiting clearance to land on June 7, when those onboard spotted the other craft hurtling towards them from below.
A spokesman for South Wales Police said: "We can confirm the Air Support Unit sighted an unusual aircraft. This was reported to the relevant authorities for their investigation."
It was reported that the aircraft closed in at great speed, aiming straight for the helicopter which swerved sharply.
"They are convinced it was a UFO. It sounds far-fetched, but they know what they saw."
The helicopter crew are said to have crossed the Bristol channel in pursuit of the UFO, but lost sight of it and had to turn back due to a fuel shortage.
The sighting comes weeks after the most comprehensive Government files on UFO activity are opened to the public for the first time today and they disclose that even air traffic controllers and police officers have seen mysterious craft in the skies over Britain.
The sightings range from incredible tales of little green men visiting the Wirral to corroborated accounts from policemen and pilots of Unidentified Flying Objects hovering above towns and cities.
All were recorded on official forms, held by air bases and police stations, and compiled by the Ministry of Defence between 1978 and 2002.

Järkyttävä ufo-tapaus Walesissa
Vaihde: South Wales poliisi, mikä hätänä?
Soittaja: Ei ole todellista. Haluan informoida että vuoren päällä on paikallaan pysyvä kirkas objekti.
Vaihde: Ok
Soittaja: Jos teillä olisi kenties muutama minuutti aikaa, te voisitte selvittää mikä se on? Se on ollut siellä vähintää puoli tuntia ja se on edelleen siellä!
Vaihde: Ollut siellä puoli tuntia. Ok. Onko se vuorella vai taivaalla?
Soittaja: Se on taivaalla!
Vaihde: Lähetän jonkun tarkistamaan asian heti..
Soittaja: Ok!
Kun poliisipartio saapuu paikalle, näemme keskuksen ja partion välisen radioliikenteen:
Vaihde: Alpha Zulu 20, se objekti taivaalla, saiko kukaan siitä näköhavainnon??
Poliisi: Se on kuu. Kuittaus.
Poliisin edustaja kertoo että tämä oli melko tuore esimerkki ei-järkevästä soitosta Walesin poliisille.
"Toki koominen puoli voidaan havaita, mutta puhelu saattaa blokata tärkeä puhelun jossa aidosti ihmishenki kyseessä."
Muutama muu erikoinen soitta hätäpuhelimeen: joku halusi apua että miten äänestää Rhydiania X-Factorissa ja toinen oli punnan pyytäminen supermarketin ostoskärryyn.
