A UFO sighting in Leighton Buzzard has been reported following witnesses saying they saw an unusual object travelling slowly through the sky.

Jo Jefferson claims that she saw a cylindrical shaped object, which had a centre square of an orange glow while stopped at traffic lights in her car on Wednesday at 6.20pm.

She said: "When the lights turned to green, I pulled over to a safe spot and got out of my car.

"A gentleman in his car had followed me and he too got out and came and spoke to me about the 'object' as he had also seen it. "
The intrigued spectators were then joined by four other people who claimed they too saw the UFO.

Jo added: "We all agreed it was not a plane, helicopter or Chinese Lantern as it had no wings, propellors or fins on it.

"We all saw clearly that it was a dull grey in colour, but we couldn't give any size as not too sure how far away it was.

"We couldn't hear any noise, again, because of the distance.

"It travelled exceedingly slow."
