Owners New Car Has Paint Purned Off By UFO.
The following UFO event happened in my home town, Del Rio,Texas, in 1957. Although I did not personnaly see the event happen, the whole town knew about it, and it was reported in the Local Newspaper, and admitted by the local police department and the local U.S.A.F Base near Del Rio. Here is Del Rio's real U.F.O. story as I remebered it from my youth in 1957: One night, a local Del Rio traveling salesman who frequently traveled east on US Highway 10, from Del Rio to San Antonio (165 miles away}, was engaged by a cigar shaped UFO. The UFO hovered over his car with oscillating multicolored lights. The UFO caused the car's engine and electrical system to shut down. When the salesman looked out his car window at the UFO, he was severely burned on his face. When the UFO left, the salesman being terrified, restarted his car and returned to Del Rio, (he was about 30 miles east of Del Rio when he encountered the UFO). When he reached Del Rio, he went to the hospital for burn treatment and the hospital reported the unusual circumstances to the Del Rio Police Dept. This type of encounter may not seem to odd until you hear the unusual thing that happened to the salesmans new "two-day old" car within the next few days. The next morning, it was obvious all the paint on the salesmans new car had been completely burned off. Within a few days the outside of the car had "totally rusted" from exposer to the UFO. The local Ford dealer could not account for the "sudden" paint loss and rusting on the car. As I recall, the local Ford dealer gave him a new car and the U.S. Air Force took the car away. The local Del Rio salesman suddenly left Del Rio and was never seen in Del Rio again. This story is true. It really happened in my home town in 1957. Many of the old-time residents in Del Rio remember going down to the police station and seeing the "new rusting car". Many local residents are still reluctant to talk about this incident.
