A police helicopter had a near miss with a UFO in what appears to have been one of the first sightings of its kind. The helicopter, with a three-man crew, was forced to swerve sharply to avoid being hit by the UFO. The bizarre incident took place near an RAF base outside Cardiff, South Wales, where the helicopter is based. A source said: “It closed in at great speed, aiming straight at the helicopter. “The chopper had to swerve sharply to avoid being hit. The guys said if they’d stayed where they were, they’d be dead – it would’ve been a direct hit. [ Visit Website ]
